KU Certificates

What is a certificate and why should I get one?

KU offers a wide variety of Experiential Learning Programs and Certificates that offer fantastic opportunities for undergraduate students. Whether you're looking to build your resume, gain hands-on experience, or take your education beyond the classroom, KU has got you covered. All completed certificates will be notated on your academic transcript.

There are two main types of certificates here at KU:

• The experiential learning certificates, where you are doing classwork and hands-on experience.
• The classroom certificates, where you are taking approximately 4 classes to further your understanding on a particular subject.

For complete information about the College's policy on certificates offered in the College, please visit the KU Catalog here.

If you are earning a BGS degree, you have the option to earn two certificates (anything listed below) as your second area of study. To add a College certificate, please email your advisor or collegeundergrad@ku.edu.
