These certificates are of a practical nature and provide these individuals the opportunity to obtain focused continuing graduate education in areas of interest to them while at the same time providing them the option of using the certificate as an entry point for future study for the MSEM degree. the types of certificates offered, the mechanism for entry into the MSEM program, and success of these certificates in serving their stated purpose is discussed. © American Society for Engineering Education, 2007.
