Complete the program in one year
Students do not have to take the core courses required of a bachelor's degree because they already completed those in their first bachelor's degree program. Students take only the required courses for computer science so it is possible for a student to graduate within a year. However, the one-year track is intense requiring full-time status as a student online. If you plan to work while pursuing this degree, the courses are offered so that you can spread the program over two, three or even four years.
