Public Administration & Policy Certificate Program in Nonprofit Management and Leadership

 

This Certificate of Graduate Study requires 5 courses.  Three of the 5 courses must be taken in addition to courses counted toward a degree program in which the student is concurrently or previously enrolled.  At least 2 courses must be taken in Rockefeller College of Public Affairs and Policy.  In addition to the 2 required Rockefeller College classes, students are encouraged to take at least one course in the School of Social Welfare.  However, given the multidisciplinary perspectives to which students at Rockefeller College are exposed, it is possible to complete the certificate with all courses taken at Rockefeller College.
