Management Certificates

All classes leading to a certificate must be taken for credit, and courses cannot be counted toward more than one certificate. Only non-majors are eligible for certificates (for example, a student majoring in management cannot pursue a certificate in management but would be eligible to pursue a certificate in business law). Otherwise, students can complete a certificate program regardless of their major.
