ABOUT OUR GRADUATE CERTIFICATE PROGRAMS

The SHSS Graduate Certificate programs prepare students for the changing nature of professions, businesses, and community services. They provide needed knowledge, methods, and skills leading to career advancement and life enlightenment in the fields of study. Graduate Certificate programs are beneficial for those who have already received a graduate degree in their current area, but would like to specialize in the new area of inquiry and practice. Graduate Certificate programs are also appropriate for those who possess an undergraduate degree and are seeking to obtain the fundamentals in the considered field of study. Many of the earned credits can also be counted toward a related master's degree program, if the student is interested in and accepted to the program at a later time. Below is a description of the various SHSS Graduate Certificate programs.
