Overview
UCF offers more than 70 graduate certificate programs to supplement an existing graduate program or to provide specialized knowledge in disciplines that complement the education of working professionals in the metropolitan area served by the university. Many area employees have advanced graduate degrees and can enhance their education with specialized courses. Frequently, a package of specialized courses that forms a certificate will increase employment credentials and lead to career enhancement.
Certificate programs are often ideal for nondegree students who would like to sample graduate courses before committing to a graduate degree program. Certificate programs may round out a graduate degree program, providing a special emphasis in addition to a graduate degree. A certificate program can provide an interdisciplinary focus to an existing program of study to provide more depth and understanding to enhance the graduate program.
Admission
For most graduate certificate programs, admission is open to those with a bachelor's degree from a regionally accredited institution. An application to the graduate certificate program and official transcripts must be submitted. Applicants are encouraged to apply online. Each graduate certificate includes admission information in its program description in this section of the Graduate Catalog.
Policies
For university policies concerning graduate certificate programs, see Graduate Certificate Programs in the Policies section of this Graduate Catalog. Certificate programs may have additional policies.
