CIOI Admissions Process

CIO Certificate

Designed specifically for the IT professional, Carnegie Mellon’s executive education programs are flexible so you can enroll for one course, several courses, or the entire certificate program. Courses can also be taken in any order and you can start and stop taking courses as needed.

Browse the upcoming course schedule. Once you’ve decided which ones to take, registering is fast and convenient with our online registration form. If you’re a new student, this form will ask you for additional information to get your initial enrollment started.

Call the CIO Institute at (412) 268-4656 if you have any questions about how to enroll.

First, see what application requirements apply.

Certificate-to-Degree Option

Begin with the CIO Certificate admissions process above. Once you complete at least five CIO Certificate classes, you may proceed with application for admission to the Master of Science in Information Technology (MSIT) distance program. Carnegie Mellon’s Heinz College handles inquiries and admissions for the MSIT degree program. Please contact us at hnzadmit@andrew.cmu.edu or 412-268-2164, or go to the MSIT Web site for details on application and program requirements.

Registration Deadlines

Register for CIOI courses as far in advance as possible. We accept registrations on a first-come, first-served basis until the class is full. Check the scheduled dates of each class.
