Capstone Certificates

What is a Capstone Certificate?

Capstone Certificates allow students with a bachelor’s degree to obtain additional professional skills and certification. Designed for nontraditional students and working professionals, Capstone Certificates reflect a focused collection of graduate-level courses approved by the Graduate School. Capstone Certificate programs do not lead to the conferral of a degree but do appear on a student’s UW-Madison transcript. Programs offering Capstone Certificates monitor all application, academic and satisfactory progress requirements.
