Whether you are a part-time graduate student already in the workforce or a full-time graduate student working toward a Master degree in the fields of Public Administration or International Studies, the Graduate Certificate in Security Studies may be just right for you. The Certificate is a 15 hour non-degree program, which does not require you to already be admitted into a Masters degree program or to take the Graduate Record Exams (GRE). It is self-paced, allowing students to take as few as one course a semester, depending on their workload at the office or other commitments. All courses required for the Certificate can also be taken through Distance Education.
