PGCert in Economics

San Francisco State lists a postgraduate certificate in economics through the same department that teaches the university's undergraduate economics major. That department presents its undergraduate degree as excellent preparation for further work in the field, and the certificate offers a more compact route for people who want additional training in economic analysis. Certificate programs are shorter than full degrees, so requirements differ from those of the master's. Official details on admission, required courses and completion rules appear in the San Francisco State University Bulletin. Interested students should read that entry carefully and contact the department to confirm eligibility, enrollment steps, timing, and how the certificate could fit alongside any other degree they are pursuing or have already finished. Early contact also helps students understand how long the certificate takes.
