Communication Certificate
The communication graduate certificate program provides potential students who are not interested in a complete MA program the opportunity to expand their knowledge of the discipline or customize their learning toward a specific area of study. This can be helpful for career promotion, professional opportunities, teaching in-discipline at the community college/dual-enrollment level, personal exploration, etc.
