Like a minor, certificates offer a specific academic focus but are interdisciplinary, allowing students to combine courses from different departments to explore a common theme. Students who earn certificates demonstrate subject level competence and their intellectual commitment to a topic, which can prove valuable at the graduate level or in the workplace.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Certificate programs are available to all 51ÁÔÆæ undergraduates to earn while working on their degree. In most cases, students who have previously earned a bachelor’s degree from 51ÁÔÆæ or any other accredited institution can also enroll to earn a certificate. Others may be able to enroll as non-degree students if they meet 51ÁÔÆæ admission requirements. Certificates are awarded at the time of graduation or upon completion of the program requirements.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

These certificates are highly complementary to a political science major or minor and include courses from political science.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
