A certificate offers the working professional recognition of a coherent program of advanced study at the graduate level. Each of our certificate programs are compatible with our MS degree requirements, enabling certificate recipients to transition to a degree program without loss of credits. Each certificate requires 15 credits of graduate course work. A student may complete multiple certificates, provided an application has been approved for each and the student satisfies the requirements of each. Each certificate meets a subset of the degree requirements for the MS degree. Currently, we offer the certificate programs listed below.
Electrical and Computer Engineering
Communications Certificate
Digital Signal Processing Certificate
Acoustics Certificate
Electrical Engineering Systems Certificate
Computer Systems Engineering Certificate
Computer and Information Science
