The Certificate of Advanced Graduate Study provides specialized knowledge and skills in specific areas of study related to the specific program. It is offered to individuals who hold a Master’s degree in that program or a closely related field. A customized course of study traditionally consisting of anywhere between 15-30 graduate credits is developed in consultation with the graduate Program Director. Students have an opportunity to develop an area of specialization that is related to their current work or future career goals. Students are typically enrolled in this program on a part-time basis and have up to seven years to complete their course of study.
