History Graduate Certificate

The University’s online graduate certificate in history is geared toward high school teachers in need of a credential for promotion and/or to teach college-level, dual-credit history courses.

• This online program is ideal for working professionals who need 18 credits, non-specified, at the graduate-level in history. A major benefit of the program is its flexibility. Taking advantage of the asynchronous online format, students can work full-time as they complete their coursework.
• Students choose topics of interest among a variety of courses, but they must complete six credits at the 600-level, including a course in research and methods.
• All courses are offered online. Campus visits are not required.
• Upon successful completion of the program, students are awarded a certificate of completion.
• This online program is open to eligible students in the U.S. (including the District of Columbia and all U.S. territories). The program also is open to students in Canada (all provinces). The program is closed to students residing in countries other than the U.S. and Canada except for U.S. military and State Department personnel and their family members with APO/FPO addresses.

Note: Coursework in this certificate program may be applied toward completion of the University’s online History M.A. Program. To be eligible, individuals must hold a 3.5 grade point average or higher upon completion of the certificate.
