Success Stories
Elena R.
"I was working full-time and have two kids. The asynchronous format was the only way I could have done this. The faculty understood that we were professionals first, students second. It wasn't easy, but it was manageable, and the promotion I got halfway through paid for the degree."
David K.
"My undergraduate degree was in Biology. I was worried I wouldn't be able to keep up with the coding. The 'Foundations' track brought me up to speed quickly. By the second term, I was building predictive models that I actually used in my job at the hospital."
