Return to: College of Liberal Arts and Social Sciences
The Professional Writing Certificate program is designed to enhance the credentials of students who are preparing for careers in corporate, professional, or technical writing, public relations, advertising, or for other careers in which writing plays an important role. The curriculum includes courses in graphics and design, editing, and other aspects of textual production, as well as in various genres of writing. While the Professional Writing Certificate is offered as an all-elective program, students are advised to select a curriculum that represents more than one aspect of textual production.
Students may earn the Professional Writing Certificate as part of their baccalaureate degree program, or they may add it to their credentials if they already have a baccalaureate degree. The Professional Writing Certificate is not awarded to persons who do not have a baccalaureate degree.

Admission to the Professional Writing Certificate Program
The Professional Writing Certificate program is open to all Cleveland State University undergraduates and graduate students, as well as Cleveland State alumni and students and alumni at other colleges and universities. Students must be enrolled in a baccalaureate degree program, or already have a baccalaureate degree, in order to be eligible for a Professional Writing Certificate. Prerequisites for Completing a Certificate
Some of the courses in the Professional Writing Certificate program have specific course requirements. Students desiring to take these courses as part of the certificate program must, therefore, take the prerequisites, in addition to the 20 credits required for the certificate. See the English Department office staff for the complete description of this certificate program.
Information on the certificate program is available on the English Department webpage, or students can stop by the English Department, Rhodes Tower 1815, or see details in the certificates section of this catalog. |
