About Embedded Certificates
The Department of Psychological and Brain Sciences offers embedded certificates as part of the major. The certificates are considered embedded because they require no additional coursework — beyond specific courses in the major itself — to earn the certificate.
All certificates require 15 credits (5 courses). The certificates are designed to:
- Bring greater depth and structure to the major
- Provide students with guidance as to courses that build on each other
- Ultimately increase the employability of our students
