Niche Ranks DeVry University No.3 Among 2027 Best Colleges for Information Technology in America

National recognition highlights DeVry's focus on technology-focused education for an evolving workforce


LISLE, Ill. Sept. 10, 2026 DeVry University has earned the No. 3 national ranking for 2027 Best Colleges for Information Technology in America according to Niche, a leading platform connecting students and families with colleges and schools. The recognition highlights DeVry’s longstanding focus on technology education and its commitment to creating innovative learning experiences that help prepare students for a rapidly evolving workforce.

“Technology has been embedded in DeVry’s academic identity since our founding 95 years ago, so being recognized among the nation’s leading institutions for information technology is especially significant,” said Elise Awwad, president and CEO of DeVry University. “It reflects a long-standing academic strength and the work of our faculty and colleagues to keep our programs closely connected to industries, careers and the skills employers value. That connection between education and the world of work has always distinguished DeVry and continues to shape the experience we create for our learners today.”

Niche’s Best Colleges for Information Technology ranking evaluates the top I.T. programs across the U.S. and incorporates statistics and student surveys on all aspects of the student experience, including academics, value, professors, diversity, local area, campus quality, safety, and student life, along with data from the U.S. Department of Education.

"Colleges aren't one-size-fits-all, and we don't think rankings should be either," added Luke Skurman, founder and CEO of Niche. "This is the most complete and fair picture of university success we've ever published."

DeVry has a 95-year history of evolving its education alongside advances in technology and the changing needs of the workforce. Today, AI, innovation, technology and experiential learning are integrated throughout the DeVry learning experience, giving students opportunities to apply what they learn to real-world challenges.
