Educational Research Methodology (ERM) online certificate

UIC certificate

The Educational Research Methodology (ERM) online certificate, offered through the Department of Educational Psychology, will be available starting Fall 2009. This online certificate provides opportunities for students to upgrade their educational research skills without enrolling in a Masters or Ph.D. program. Students will be prepared to use these skills to conduct research within their own content areas and for a variety of different positions in research and applied settings. The ERM online certificate provides opportunities for several populations: private and public sector workers in education and other social science fields who want to upgrade their research skills, graduate students from education and other fields who want training in research methods, and those individuals desiring to pursue a shorter and focused course of study in educational research methods with an option to apply for the full M.Ed. in MESA online program. For more information about the ERM online certificate please email Everett V. Smith, Associate Professor of Educational Psychology, at evsmith@uic.edu.
