Dear Julie:
In terms of Duquesne University's Archives, Museum, and Editing Program,
our certification process is for individuals who already have a masters
degree (usually in history) and want to get further training in the areas
covered by our program. These students do not have to take the history
courses required of our degree candidates. The certificate can be earned
in a year's time.
I hope this clears up the difference for you.
Sincerely,
Mike Cahall
