Programs of Study

Indiana University of Pennsylvania offers several programs leading to professional licensure or certification within the State of Pennsylvania. Other states vary in what professions they require to be licensed/certified and how licensure/certification is acquired. Some states require an individual to graduate from an accredited program. Others require individuals to obtain additional coursework, additional fieldwork, background checks, passage of additional state licensing exams, additional fees, or other requirements. Students should check licensure/certification requirements in the specific state where they wish to work to make sure their educational program prepares them for employment in their desired profession.

Undergraduate certificates are available to both active and inactive IUP degree seeking students, with the exception of the following: Biochemistry Honors, Chemistry Honors, Diversity and Social Justice, English as a Second Language, Photography and Digital Imaging, Public health and Community Nutrition, Spanish Education Pre-K  through Grade 12, and Urban Education which are restricted to IUP degree seeking students.
