The online undergraduate certificates takes three consecutive semesters to complete. The first courses begin with spring semester (Jan. 6th 2010), continue summer semester and finish during fall semester (early Dec. 2010 dates TBA). Courses are designed to be taken in sequence as they are only offered once a year. Students will be enrolled in two courses at any given time during the certificate - pay special attention to summer semester. Students may not "jump in" during summer or fall semesters; so, the same group of classmates begin and complete the certificate together as a cohort/group. View individual term links below for specific start and stop dates.
