Graduate Certificates

Graduate certificates can provide:

• A preliminary step in starting a master's degree program; all credits taken as part of a graduate certificate may be subsequently applied towards an MBA or relevant MS degree.
• An opportunity for Lindner MBA and MS students to add even more value to their degree*.
