Graduate Certificate in Labor Relations

Curriculum

Program Requirements

You will develop a four-course (12-credit) program of study with the director of the Schmidt Labor Research Center based on your individual interests and needs. The certificate is awarded when you complete the four-course sequence with a Grade Point Average (GPA) of 3.0 or greater.

You are expected to apply, obtain admission and create a Program of Study (POS) detailing the four courses PRIOR to taking the courses. Courses taken for the certificate may be applied to the MS in LR or HR if you choose to continue your studies.
