The Graduate Certificate in HPDP provides graduate-level instruction in health promotion to non-graduate-degreed practitioners. Students will gain a foundation for designing, conducting, and evaluating health promotion programs in public health, while at the same time benefit from numerous opportunities for practical application. This certificate program is open to non-degree-seeking students only.
Program requirements
This certificate program requires the completion of 18 graduate credits. The student must demonstrate proficiency in health promotion and design, implementation and evaluation. If students are proficient in any one area covered by the required courses, alternative courses must be approved by the advisor. A graduate statistics course (biostatistics, social statistics) is a prerequisite. Students should consult with advisors since new courses are frequently added, and some courses have prerequisites and enrollment stipulations.
