Our four-course certificates offer concentrated pathways for students looking to enhance a specific skill set or fulfill a knowledge gap. Earning a certificate demonstrates to employers that you are knowledgeable in a focused-learning area, as well as your determination and discipline to succeed academically. You are awarded a certificate upon completion.
Our Master’s degree programs are a more comprehensive, long-term academic commitment, requiring 10 to 18 courses to complete. You must meet specific admissions requirements and complete a degree program application to pursue a degree.
If you plan to pursue multiple certificates, keep in mind that each course can only count toward one certificate. Each certificate is carefully designed to include a distinct set of courses to ensure its academic and professional value.
