Graduate Certificate Programs

Graduate certificate programs at Missouri University of Science and Technology (Missouri S&T) give you the opportunity to broaden your knowledge in a particular discipline, learn the latest in developing fields, and stay competitive in today's marketplace. By taking a few courses, you will be able to demonstrate advanced knowledge in a field without returning to school to complete a degree.

Graduate certificate programs also provide a mechanism for acceptance into a graduate degree program. By completing a certificate program with a grade of B or above in all courses, you can then be accepted into the corresponding master's program without taking the GRE or being required to meet  a minimum GPA from your undergraduate studies. This acceptance does not waive the need to complete any prerequisites for other advanced courses that are part of the degree program.
