About the Certificate

This certificate program equips students with a set of tools that allows them to achieve international standards in the management area, to successfully manage projects and human resources, and to analyze, evaluate, and improve systems.

The graduate certificate program is open to all individuals holding a B.S., M.S., or Ph.D. degree in an appropriate engineering discipline and who have a minimum of two years of professional experience, or are currently accepted into a graduate degree program in the Department of Civil, Architectural and Environmental Engineering.

The certificate program consists of four courses. In order to receive a graduate certificate, the student must have an average graduate cumulative grade point of 3.0 or better in the certificate courses taken.

Students admitted to the certificate program will have non-degree graduate status but will earn graduate credit for the courses they complete. If the four-course sequence approved by the graduate adviser is completed with a grade of B or better in each of the courses taken, the student will be admitted to the M.S. degree program in civil engineering, if they apply. The certificate courses taken by students admitted to the program will count toward their master’s degree.

Once admitted to the program, a student will be given three years to complete the program as long as a B average is maintained in the courses taken.

Pathway to a Master's Degree

Are you a working professional who wants to earn your master's degree, but you don’t have time to take the GRE/GMAT? Then start in a graduate certificate program. Graduate certificates were designed as a pathway to a master's degree.* The admission requirements are more relaxed and credit earned will count toward your degree. Once you successfully earn your graduate certificate, you can continue with the corresponding master's degree without having to take the GRE/GMAT.
