If you’ve earned a certificate in project management, the logical "next step" on your educational pathway is to leverage that experience toward a graduate degree. For this reason, UWP maintains transfer agreements with partner institutions in which UWP will accept certificate coursework for credit toward the Master of Science in Project Management.

Additional Provisions

Some students have earned multiple credentials and/or certificates from institutions that participate in transfer or credit agreements with UWP. A common example is the student who holds the Project Management Professional (PMP®) credential from the Project Management Institute (PMI®) and also earns a certificate from one of the programs listed below. The PMP is valued at 3 elective credits, and the certificate programs are valued at 6 to 12 credits (depending on program).

Please note: UWP allows credit from only one participating program or credential to count toward degree completion. You can receive transfer credit from the UC-Irvine program (for example) OR for the PMP credential, but not both.

If you have questions about transfer and credit agreements, contact your advisor or the program director at projectmgmt@uwplatt.edu.
