Complex Systems Graduate Certificate

The Center for the Study of Complex Systems (CSCS) and the Horace H. Rackham School of Graduate Studies at the University of Michigan are pleased to offer a Certificate of Graduate Studies in Complex Systems.

This interdisciplinary curriculum, leading to a Graduate Certificate in Complex Systems, introduces students to the ideas and methods used in the study of complex, nonlinear and adaptive systems. The specific aim is to allow students from different fields to integrate the rich paradigms and useful analytic and modeling techniques of complex systems into their own research.

The curriculum is designed to be accessible to students in a wide range of disciplines in the physical, biological and social sciences. The program accepts students who are either:

A) simultaneously enrolled in a graduate degree program at the University of Michigan, or

B) who have a Bachelor's degree or higher from any University AND are U.S. citizens.

Students enrolled in the Certificate Program are encouraged to participate in the research activities of the Center for the Study of Complex Systems (CSCS) including our seminar series, the Complex systems Advanced Academic Workshop (CSAAW) and other special events.
