Gonzaga's certificate program offers cutting-edge training in an affordable program that typically takes one year to complete.

Starting with the certificate program can be beneficial for these reasons:

  • Quick Registration - allows you to register fast as you are applying as a non-matriculated student.
  • Courses can apply to the Masters - all certificate courses can be applied towards the masters degree.
  • Flexibility - if you would like to take a few courses first before committing to the masters program.

Note: earning the certificate does not guarantee admission to the Master's program. Credits from other programs are NOT transferable to the certificate.

Requirements

  • The certificate consists of any five (5) TADP 3-credit courses. These eight-week courses are offered online by industry leaders and Gonzaga University engineering faculty.
  • Any TADP courses are eligible for the certificate. We encourage students to take courses which best fit their professional needs.
  • Certificate requires a cumulative 3.0 GPA.
  • All classes are taught online in eight-week modules. Each course requires between 15-20 hours of presentations, readings, assignments and discussion board work per week. For this reason, students should only schedule one course per session.
