Distance Learning Certificate Program

235: Combat Systems Science and Engineering Certificate

The Combat Systems Science and Engineering Certificate addresses the technologies and theoretical foundations of current and future combat systems. The courses available in the certificate cover fundamental physical principles governing combat systems and their integration, ranging from sensor technologies, weapons and their effects, modern missile technologies, and advanced weapon systems.

274: Anti-Submarine Warfare Certificate

The ASW Certificate consists of a sequence of four highly technical courses designed to provide our civilian and active-duty workforce with a learning experience which extends their general undergraduate education to include the essential concepts, equations, and skill sets needed to understand, design, and use ASW systems. The web-based courses are paced week-to-week by the instructors, but students have the flexibility to do coursework at times of their choosing during each week.

The program starts in the Spring Quarter (end of March/early April) and ends the following year in the Spring Quarter (early to mid-June). It is offered in two half-year parts with a one quarter break between in the Fall Quarter.
