A minimum of 6 coursework credits must be taken at the 5XX level or higher. Seminar and Capstone credits do not count as coursework credits.
Graduate students are allowed to complete the “UAS Applications & Design” Certificate and advanced undergraduate may elect to complete the “UAS Development & Analytics” Certificate. Although a number of courses are listed in both curricula, any given course can only count towards one of the certificates. If one or more courses listed as required for a particular certificate have already been used to satisfy requirements for the other certificate, courses from the list of electives may be substituted to allow the 15-credit total to be reached. Courses that are cross-listed with both undergraduate & graduate sections cannot be taken at both levels for credit by an individual student.
