Project Management Certificate of Undergraduate Study (CUGS)

Our online Project Management Certificate of Undergraduate Study (CUGS) program will equip individuals with the practical knowledge and skills required to coordinate, facilitate, manage, and lead projects and other initiatives. The CUGS will also help prepare students for the Certified Associate in Project Management (CAPM) certificate, an entry level certification for project practitioners.

While the highest demand for project managers is in the IT sector, the demand for employees who are skilled in project-oriented work spans many industries, such as finance and insurance, oil and gas, construction and utility, manufacturing, and may include initiatives like running a marketing campaign, constructing a building, developing a computer system, or launching a new product.

We’re a transfer-friendly school. We offer resources to help you see how your previously earned credits from a community college, a four-year institution or military training will transfer to this program. To explore this further, check out the Rowan Transfer Equivalency Digital Portal (TREQ) or Transferology.

Our Project Management Certificate of Undergraduate Study program requires the completion of 12 graduate credits (four courses). This certificate can be awarded as a separate credential or stacked as part of the online Bachelor of Arts in Computer Systems Technology.
