Advanced Certificate International Education
The Advanced Certificate Program is for practitioners and teachers in the field of international education who already have the MA degree. It requires a minimum of 30 credits and can be completed in one year, consisting of two terms of full-time academic course work, and, for some students, the summer as well. This is a flexible program in which students may develop a concentration that links educational research to policy and practice and is of immediate practical use to them. Listed below, in addition to three required courses in the Foundations of International Education (9 credits), are suggested courses that may be of particular interest to students pursuing the Advanced Certificate.
