What are Graduate Certificates?
Enhance your qualifications or specialize in a new professional area without the time and financial investment of a full degree program.
Graduate certificates provide an in-depth exploration of a subject area, without the commitment required for a full master's degree. Structured to give professionals the theoretical knowledge and practical skills needed to advance or pivot in their careers, graduate certificates can be a strategic step towards a higher degree.
