2023 Best Value Computer Engineering Graduate Certificate Schools
Identifying Quality Schools at More Affordable Prices
Finding the Best Computer Engineering Graduate Certificate School for You
Computer Engineering is the #46 most popular major in the country with 5,557 degrees and certificates awarded in 2020-2021.
There are lots of options to pick from today when trying to decide which program is right for you. As online education oppotunities continue to grow, you're not restricted to just schools in your local area anymore. Even some of the 'big name' schools are offering online courses. Also, there are a number of trade schools with offerings that you might find attractive.
The Best Value Computer Engineering Graduate Certificate Schools ranking is one of many tools that Grad Degree Search has developed to help you make your educational decision. This report analyzed 16 schools in the United States to see which ones offered the best value graduate certificate programs for CE students. The goal was to highlight schools with more affordable prices than others offering similar quality experiences.
When determining this ranking, we place a high emphasis on the school's quality as well as its sticker price. Even though a college may be affordable, it may not offer value. More specifically, we discount our quality score by the published tuition and fees charged by a school. This gives the cost per unit of quality for each college. The value is determined by how much quality your dollar buys.
Our calculations use out-of-state tuition and fees in our nationwide and regional rankings. Average in-state tuition and fees are used for our statewide rankings.
