Community College Graduate Certificate
The community college graduate certificate is designed to prepare graduate
students to work in community college settings as teaching faculty or
counselors. Courses offered in this program provide students with an overview
of the community college and its role in the American higher education
system. Students will gain insights and experiences in the classroom and
fieldwork that will strengthen their knowledge and skills in working with
community college students, faculty, and staff.
All students will be required to:
- Be enrolled in a master’s degree program or have earned a master’s
degree in a discipline leading to teaching or counseling in post-secondary
education settings.
- Complete 9 credits of coursework in Educational Psychology: Introduction
to the Community College (EDP 552), Students in U.S. Higher Education
(EDP 548), and a fieldwork class that is counseling or teaching focused
(EDP 644B).
- Complete an additional 9 credit hours approved by their master’s
degree program graduate advisor for consideration to fulfill the 18
credits required for the certificate. These courses may include pedagogy,
learning theory, instructional management, and/or teaching methodology
courses in the student’s major area or study, or any other courses
in the discipline deemed appropriate by the master’s degree program
graduate advisor.
