Any UAB graduate student who has been formally accepted into a graduate program of study is eligible to enroll into the GHS certificate program. Applications can be found here.
Any student who wishes to enroll into the GHS Certificate Program is responsible for meeting with his or her departmental coordinator and with the GHS program coordinator to ensure that all administrative requirements have been met. They are also responsible for meeting with the GHS program coordinator on a semesterly basis to ensure that coursework is being completely in a timely manner.
Students are eligible to enroll into the certificate program at any time during their graduate course of study. Any student who does not maintain a “B” average in his or her certificate courses is subject to dismissal from the certificate program.
Timeline for Completion
Students are able to enroll into the GHS certificate program at any time during their graduate course of study at UAB. There is no timeline for completion of the certificate program; however, given that the GHS certificate program incurs an additional 15 hrs, it is important for a student to begin planning his or her course of study as soon as possible once entering his or her primary degree program.
