Certificates
Some academic units designate a set of classes that constitute a certificate in that academic unit. The requirements of the certificate are set by the faculty of the academic unit offering the certificate, not by the academic unit of the student's major field of study. When an academic unit offers a certificate in a field of study, it is open to all students in the University regardless of school of origin. Students who seek to earn a certificate will be expected to meet the normal prerequisites in courses making up the certificate and students must earn a "C" or better in all courses making up the certificate. Major or minor required semester credit hours and courses may be used (or stacked) to satisfy certificate and major or minor requirements simultaneously. Students may use a single course to satisfy more than one certificate requirement. No transfer credit can be counted toward a UT Permian Basin certificate. Students should consult with an advisor in their major field of study as they select and plan certificates.
