A certificate program is a coherent set of academic courses, considerably narrower in scope and objectives than a degree or major, for which students can receive a certificate upon its successful completion. Most certificate programs are oriented toward occupations and/or career skills. No student is required to complete a certificate program. Completion is recognized by the awarding of a certificate. While the courses will appear on a student's transcript, there is no notation about the program on either a diploma or permanent record, because unlike a minor, a certificate is not part of a degree. Students may pursue a certificate program before, during, or after your baccalaureate degree. 

Requirements:

• A certificate program must contain at least 12 units of courses numbered 300 or above and a minimum of 15 total units. 
• Each certificate program must contain a required core of at least three courses and 9 units.
• With faculty advice, special certificate programs may be available. Students should see General Education: Interdisciplinary Studies and Special Certificates chapter of the catalog.
• Students must receive a grade of “C” or better in each course applied to the program.
• Only one course may be taken “CR/NC” in a certificate program not counting courses for which that is the only grading pattern for the course.
• At least 75% of the units must be taken at Cal State 麻豆蜜桃AV. (For certificate programs, Cal State 麻豆蜜桃AV courses may be taken through University Extension or as a regularly admitted and enrolled student.)
• Students who have already received a major, option, or minor with the same title are not eligible for the certificate. 

A graduate certificate program is a coherent set of academic courses, considerably narrower in scope and objectives than a degree, for which you can receive a certificate upon its successful completion. Most certificate programs are oriented toward occupations and/or career skills. No student is required to complete a certificate program. Completion is recognized by the awarding of a certificate. While the courses will appear on a student's transcript, there is no notation about the program on either a diploma or permanent record.

Requirements:

• Each certificate program must contain a minimum of 12 units.
• For programs that include undergraduate courses, the minimum is 15 units.
• Any undergraduate courses must be at the upper-division level.
• Only one course below the 600-level may be taken “CR/NC” and no graduate course may be taken “CR/NC” in a certificate program unless that is the only grading pattern for the course.
• Students must take at least 75% of the courses and all 600-level courses at Cal State 麻豆蜜桃AV. (For certificate programs, Cal State 麻豆蜜桃AV courses may be taken through University Extension or as a regularly admitted and enrolled student.)
