Completion requirement

Students may also want to consider taking other courses in the biomedical sciences to enhance their learning experience; however, these courses will not count towards required units of coursework in the certificate program.  Certificate students must maintain an overall GPA of 3.0 as required by the Graduate College. Students whose cumulative GPA falls below 3.0, will be put on probation for the next semester. If the student’s GPA is still below 3.0 at the end of the probation semester, he/she shall be dismissed from the MIGCP.
