Online PhD Programs in Computer Science & Information Technology at Universities in South Dakota

Online degrees mapped to computer science & information technology from the program's official description. A program appears here only when its own page supports the subject.

Listings in South Dakota identify where the institution (or its administering campus) is located. They do not mean you must live there, and an online degree based in South Dakota is not automatically open to every South Dakota resident or to international applicants — check each program's state authorization and licensure notes.

Practical placement

Clinicals, practicums, internships, fieldwork or student teaching.

Class schedule

Study intensity

Published duration

Conditional minimums (“as few as…”) do not count as the program length.

Cost, accreditation & deadlines

Published tuition

Matches only programs that publish tuition on that basis. Per-credit, per-year and whole-program figures are never compared.

Institutional accreditor

Verified programmatic accreditation

e.g. CCNE, AACSB, CAEP, ABET — named for this program on an official page.

Verified scholarships or awards

Institutional or program awards published on an official page. Loans do not count.

Deadline

Order

Clear all

Unknown never counts as a match: a program without verified tuition is not “under $X”, and an unverified attendance policy is not “no campus visits”.
