The Certificate in International Development Studies is ideal for students interested in poverty reduction, sustainability and international development careers with governments, think tanks, social enterprises and non-governmental organizations.  The Certificate in Global Health (offered in collaboration with WGGP) is ideal for students with pre-health goals, aspirations to work community health or health policy with governments, non-governmental organizations and social enterprises. 

Each certificate requires the completion of 15 credit hours with specific core courses and elective course requirements and can be easily complemented with most major coursework.
