College of Graduate Studies and Research

In our modern work environment, continuing your education beyond a bachelor’s degree is becoming increasingly important.

Earning a graduate degree and/or additional certification is a great way to start your career, earn promotion, or further your education to the doctoral level.

We offer graduate degrees and certificates/certifications in many different areas of business, education, health and human services, science and the humanities.
