Multiple Credentials for Improved ROI

We embedded the counterterrorism graduate certificate directly into the master’s degree program, so you can earn them both in less time and with less expense than earning them separately. You can choose from two options:

  • begin in the master’s program and earn the certificate along the way
  • start with the certificate and count earned credits toward your degree should you apply and be accepted into the master’s program
I am greatly enjoying the content and level of challenge in the courses. Last semester, World Campus made the entire process — from registration for classes to the final exam — extremely easy while I was deployed.
