Certificate Programs
Certificate programs are taken in conjunction with, not in place of, majors. They are meant to supplement a student's chosen area of study and to formalize into a coherent whole, courses taken outside the area of major. Specific requirements for each program are listed in the Undergraduate Bulletin.
