The School of Professional and Continuing Studies offers a dynamic and vibrant environment in which to pursue advanced knowledge and degrees, backed by the world-class resources and reputation only a top-ranked university can provide. The breadth of offerings is designed to appeal to mid-career and advancing professionals, as well as those college graduates seeking flexible formats, convenient scheduling, and leading edge knowledge and skills that emphasize professional application.

World-class scholars and leading industry practitioners have collaborated to develop some of the most innovative graduate programs in the nation. A modular approach gives students the option to gain specialized knowledge first through a Graduate Certificate, or enter directly into a Master's program. Credit from any one of our SPCS Graduate Certificates may be applied to at least one SPCS Master's degree.

Online and multi-campus options make it possible to pursue these innovative graduate degrees and certificates while maintaining full-time work commitments. Courses generally run on either a six-  or twelve-week term, and it is possible to complete many of our Master's degrees within two years by taking one course at a time, one evening a week. SPCS also offers weekend and executive-format programs that allow you to complete your degree in as little as one year.
