The Forensic Health Certificate program is open to all students who have a baccalaureate degree and who are interested in forensics. Interested students need not be nursing majors but are required to apply to matriculate into the forensics certificate program. The graduate certificate in forensic health requires the successful completion of three graduate forensics courses for a total of nine credits; each course is three credits. There are six forensic health courses available for enrollment at the graduate level. Students are required to complete NURS 581G - Forensic Health of Victims , as one of the three courses completed to be eligible for award of certificate. Course titles previously completed at the undergraduate level may not be repeated at the graduate level. Note that not all courses are offered in every semester.

Students who are currently enrolled must complete an Application for Add-On Graduate Certfication Form to add the certificate code to the academic record, and students must submit the Certificate Processing Fees form in the semester in which they plan to graduate. Students who are not currently enrolled in a degree program must complete a Stand-Alone Certificate Program application through the Graduate School and pay an application fee.
