Cannabis Studies Certificate

The Cannabis Studies Certificate Program is a 12-credit interdisciplinary program in all things cannabis (including its historical, cultural, economic, political, legal, chemical, medicinal, and spiritual dimensions) as well as in the cultivation of marijuana and hemp and the commercial development of the cannabis industry. The CSCP is a gateway to the growing cannabis industry, providing education, experience, and the opportunity to enter this growing field.

This program is designed to be completed in conjunction with an undergraduate degree or as a stand-alone program for personal and/or professional enrichment only.
