PGCert in Curriculum and Instruction

This certificate gives educators grounding in how literacy is taught and learned, locally, statewide and nationally. It does not lead to teacher certification or licensure. Applicants must already have a graduate degree in education or a similar area, or be pursuing a doctorate at the university. The application includes a statement of purpose about literacy education goals and a writing sample sent to the department for faculty review alongside the Graduate School certificate application. Admission notes: Master's degree in education or related field (or enrolled in a UA doctoral program); statement of purpose; writing sample. The page belongs to the university's online graduate certificate catalog, which lists course requirements and policies, so applicants should confirm current details with the academic department and the admissions office before submitting an application or planning a course sequence. Tuition, fees and funding are published separately by the university and are not stated on this page, so they are not listed here.
