Potential MSIT Degree Timeline*

This is a hypothetical timeline that shows how a student can complete the Master of Science in Information Technology degree program at Thomas Edison State University in about 18 months.

To demonstrate how you could progress through the program over an 18-month period, we are using the January term as your first term and move through the program during the four graduate terms offered each year. Each term is 8 weeks.

The timeline is informational in nature and does not represent an actual program plan. Enrolled graduate students work with our deans and academic advisors to develop a program plan that maps out how they will complete their degree and whether they can transfer previously earned graduate credits or earn graduate credit for what they know through prior learning assessment.

*The MS in Information Technology requires students who are not working IT professionals to take MSI-5010 Foundation of Information Technology as part of the core requirements, bringing the total credits needed to earn the degree to 39 credits. Students who are required to take MSI-5010 may need to add an additional graduate term to their timeline.
