°Ç¸ç³Ô¹Ï

The °Ç¸ç³Ô¹Ï recognizes that interdisciplinary study at the graduate level may involve coursework and formal requirements that exceed those of established degree programs. To recognize this additional work by graduate students, interdisciplinary faculty may establish a certificate program within the Graduate School.

Graduate students can pursue the a graduate certificate while earning a normal graduate degree (M.S. or Ph.D.) at CU-°Ç¸ç³Ô¹Ï or while taking coursework as a non-degree seeking student through Continuing Education’s ACCESS Program, provided they have already earned a bachelor’s degree and meet the course prerequisites. Graduate certificates are noted on the official CU-°Ç¸ç³Ô¹Ï transcript.
