Mount Allison offers undergraduate certificates that can be taken as part of your degree program.

Undergraduate certificates highlight knowledge or competencies in a particular area.

Each is built around a theme and requires you to complete 12-18 credits in specific disciplines.

Certificates must be taken at the same time as your Mount Allison degree and must be combined with a major/degree program.

Free-standing certificates are not available at this time.
