The graduate certificate in Mathematics is designed for both new and currently enrolled students aiming to build essential graduate-level mathematics knowledge. This program's curriculum includes selected courses from the Master of Mathematics degree requirements. All graduate-level courses for this certificate are offered online via Distance Education. Completing the 18 required graduate credit hours in mathematics content not only earns the certificate but also meets a standard qualification for secondary math educators to instruct dual enrollment courses. These are classes that grant both high school and college credit. Since dual enrollment criteria differ, prospective candidates should verify with their institutions and state regulations to confirm this certificate meets their specific requirements.
