Academic Certificates

The University offers Academic Certificates in various academic disciplines. An academic certificate is defined as a coherent body of work designed to reflect specialized expertise.

An academic certificate must include at least 12 credits of coursework. All required coursework must be completed with a grade of "C" or better unless the certificate specifies a higher grade requirement. Any student (undergraduate or graduate) may pursue an academic certificate by contacting the academic department in which it is offered.

Up to six of the required credits may consist of course work completed at another regionally accredited institution.

Course work must not be more than five years old unless it is being used in conjunction with the completion of a graduate degree.

Enrollment in 500-level courses is limited to students with a baccalaureate degree from a regionally accredited institution with a minimum 3.00 cumulative grade point average and applicable undergraduate seniors (see Regulation B-7 and the College of Graduate Studies section of this catalog).

The curricular requirements of the academic certificates can be found in the relevant department in the catalog. The curricular requirements of the University of Idaho Leadership academic certificate can be found below.
