Purdue Online Certificate in Corporate Communication Strategy

The Certificate in Corporate Communication Strategy is a first-of-its-kind, dual degree/certificate program from Grace College and the Brian Lamb School of Communication at Purdue University.
The corporate communication certificate consists of four, graduate-level courses designed to educate students in corporate communication challenges and solutions, across a range of industries and professional roles. The certificate is open to students in most Grace majors, and can be completed at the same time as their undergraduate degree.
The curriculum allows students to choose from select elective graduate courses that cover topics such as crisis communication, public relations, and social media communication.
Typically, courses are taken one at a time in eight-week intervals. Students taking one course each eight-week term can complete the certificate in any two semesters (Fall, Spring, and/or Summer) of their final year of undergraduate study.
After graduation, students will have the option to apply at Purdue Online and roll their certificate credits into Purdue’s online MS in Communication program. At that point, students will only need to take six additional courses to graduate with a full master’s degree.
As you consider colleges in the Midwest, be assured that when you find your way to Winona Lake, Indiana, you will discover a college with innovative strategies advancing student education. If you are serious about creating an impact in the world of corporate communication, this program is for you!
Future corporate communication professional, the way forward is Grace.
