The University offers a wide variety of certificate programs, equivalent to minors, which provide our students the opportunity to develop expertise in international subjects. These programs combine offerings from several departments so the subject is examined from a multidisciplinary approach.

While most persons who earn certificates do so in the process of completing their undergraduate degree, a certificate may be completed by non-degree seeking students.
