Graduate Academic Certificates

The department offers graduate academic certificates in advanced management in libraries and information agencies, storytelling, and youth services in libraries and information settings.

The graduate academic certificate program is intended for two audiences:

1. master’s degreed library and information science professionals who want to develop expertise in specific areas in libraries or other settings and receive a graduate academic certificate; and
2. bachelor’s or master’s degreed individuals who want to develop or enhance their knowledge of specific areas in libraries or other settings by taking master’s-level courses and receiving a graduate academic certificate.

Admission information: Prospective students must be admitted to the Toulouse Graduate School, which requires a graduate school application and official transcripts from prior colleges or universities. Students who are awarded graduate academic certificates and later apply for admission to the master’s program will be required to submit additional materials including standardized entrance examination scores (see Master of Science program).

Program requirements: Graduate academic certificates consist of three or four courses. They can be pursued prior to or concurrently with the master’s degree.
