The School of Public Policy offers certificate programs in conjunction with its master’s programs. This certificate requires the completion of at least 16 credits of course work, including a required core course and electives approved in consultation with a faculty advisor. Students already pursuing a master’s degree in SPP may, after admission to a certificate program, earn an additional 9 credits (three courses) in SPP to receive a certificate in addition to the master’s degree.
Applicants to all graduate programs must meet the admission standards and application requirements for graduate study as specified in the Graduate Admission Policies section of this catalog. Participants must be admitted to a certificate program. Admission requirements are the same as those for the master’s programs.
Students admitted to an SPP program will be terminated from SPP upon receiving one grade of F and are no longer eligible to take courses in SPP. Per university regulation students are dismissed from the university after accumulating grades of F in two courses or 9 credits of unsatisfactory grades in graduate courses. See the Academic Policies section of the catalog for additional policies pertaining to graduate students.
The graduate certificate may be pursued on a part-time or full-time basis. |
Required Core (4 credits)
