How to Apply to the Environmental Justice Graduate Certificate Program

You must be enrolled in a master's or PhD degree program at the University of Michigan to be eligible to apply to the Environmental Justice Graduate Certificate Program.

Currently enrolled students must be carrying a B average or better. Students must have at least one semester of grades at U-M before being admitted to a Rackham graduate certificate program; for students who apply in their first semester, we will hold their applications and evaluate them once their first-semester grades have been posted.

Applicants will be evaluated based on the relevance of the student’s interests and career plans to the program as outlined in the letter of intent, as well as the student’s academic performance at U-M.

The deadlines for applications are October 1 and April 30. Those who wish to apply to the program will submit the following materials:

For students who are enrolled in a Rackham administered program (i.e. Civil and Environmental Engineering, Environment and Sustainability, Chemistry, Urban Planning, etc.):

  • Complete the Dual Admission application through Rackham. Please choose “Environmental Justice Certificate” as your program of application. The program code is 01987.
  • As part of the application, include a one-page statement that explains how the Environmental Justice certificate program will contribute to the student’s education and future career, and include a proposed course plan (“Academic Statement of Purpose”) and a current CV uploaded as part of the Rackham application.

For students not currently enrolled in a Rackham graduate program:

  • Complete the Rackham application online. Please choose “Environmental Justice Certificate” as your program of application. Note that courses taken to complete certificate requirements should be registered under Rackham (dual enrollment is allowed).
  • One-page statement that explains how the Environmental Justice certificate program will contribute to the student’s education and future career, and include a proposed course plan (“Academic Statement of Purpose”), a personal statement, and a current CV uploaded as part of the Rackham application.

If you are unsure of your Rackham enrollment status, please see this list of graduate and professional degree programs not administered by Rackham.

If you have any questions about the Environmental Justice Graduate Certificate Program, including application and completion requirements, please email the SEAS Student Services Team.
