CERTIFICATIONS OF
ADVANCED STUDY (CAS)

Certificates of Advanced Study (CAS) are graduate-level programs requiring minimum of 60-80 credits of upper-level graduate coursework. These programs are more advanced than master's-level program, but they do not have the intense research requirements of a doctoral-level program.
