Print Degree Planner (opens a new window) |

We offer a 12-unit certificate program to qualified individuals in business and finance, education, nonprofit organizations, and other professions.

Students attend evening seminars alongside our graduate students and participate in all course meetings, assignments, and discussions. Writing assignments are typically the same as those given to our students in the master’s program. However, certificate students may focus on reports, executive summaries, reviews, and policy statements rather than extended research papers.
