Elements of Business Certificate
Certificate programs in the McCombs School are designed to allow undergraduate students to develop an area of expertise in addition to their major program. Undergraduate who complete transcript-recognized certificate requirements in conjunction with their degree requirements or within one year after earning the degree, receive recognition on the University transcript. At least half of the coursework may be taken after the student has earned the undergraduate degree.
Students admitted to transcript-recognized certificates must contact their academic advisors to have approved certificates added to their degree audit profiles. This allows progress toward the credential to be tracked and ensures that certificates are added to the official transcripts upon graduation, if all requirements are met.
