If you’re ready to step into a new phase of your career, you can acquire the additional skills you need from Shenandoah University graduate programs – starting this summer.
The offerings include not only doctoral and master’s programs, but also an array of certificates in a variety of fields, including health care, education and business, continuing education programs and more.
Business Graduate Programs
You can also grow as a business leader by beginning your Master of Business Administration studies this summer through Shenandoah University’s Harry F. Byrd, Jr. School of Business. If you’d rather explore advanced business studies without committing to a master’s, check out the MBA Essentials Certificate. And, if you’d like your degree to have a health care emphasis, you can earn a Healthcare Management Certificate concurrently with your MBA.
Education Graduate Programs
Shenandoah’s myriad graduate programs in education include master’s programs that include a Master of Music in Music Education (summers only); Master of Science in Education programs in Special Education, Teaching and Individual Focus; and a Master of Science in Literacy Education.
Additionally, Shenandoah offers additional options for educators, through graduate certificates, which run the gamut of PreK-12 education. Certificates are offered in Elementary Education (PreK-6); Middle School Education (6-8), Secondary Education (6-12), Health & Physical Education PK-12, Gifted Education, Reading, Administration & Supervision, and a variety of special education grade levels – K-12, K-6, 6-8 and 6-12.
And, if you want to add to your teaching tool kit and would like the credentials necessary to teach anatomy and physiology at the secondary level (often for dual-degree credit for students), Shenandoah’s graduate certificate in Anatomy and Physiology is an excellent way to do so.
If you’re looking to begin a vital and rewarding career in education, have a long work history and a bachelor’s degree, take a look at Shenandoah’s Teacher Career Switcher Program. It just might change your life.

Practicing occupational therapists with a master’s in the field or a complementary field should check out Shenandoah’s Post-Professional Doctor of Occupational Therapy program, while practicing physical therapists are urged to take a look at the university’s Transitional Doctor Of Physical Therapy program.
Ready to make the world a healthier place on a population level? Shenandoah’s 100% online Master of Public Health program is flexible to meet the needs of working professionals (courses can be taken full or part-time). The MPH also pairs beautifully with Physician Assistant Studies and Pharmacy programs.
If you’ve always had an interest in helping athletes remain healthy, consider earning a Master of Science In Athletic Training.
If you’re a health care professional who wants to learn more about the specific needs of performing artists such as dancers, musicians and actors, our one-of-a-kind graduate certificate in Performing Arts Medicine is destined to enrich your practice. And, if you have bachelor’s degree in dance, dance education, musical theater, dance science, exercise science, kinesiology, music therapy, music (education or performance), health science, dance movement therapy, or a related degree, and want an advanced education in the emerging practice area of performing arts health and fitness, Shenandoah’s new Performing Arts Health and Fitness Certificate is a great option.
If you’re a nurse with a Master of Science in Nursing and want to be a family nurse practitioner, Shenandoah’s Family Nurse Practitioner graduate certificate was made for you.
Certificates can also help you advance your public health knowledge. Shenandoah offers both an online Public Health Certificate and an online Population Health Certificate for the health care professional (both can be rolled into the Master of Public Health as well).
Shenandoah also offers several all-online continuing education programs meant to address the needs of a health care world that’s becoming increasingly complex. The Nursing Patient Care Navigator certificate provides nurses with the information needed to help patients make their way through the world of health care. Shenandoah’s Healthcare Information Technology is designed for health care professionals and demystifies the healthcare informatics universe. And, Shenandoah’s certificate in Pharmacogenomics & Personalized Medicine provides pharmacists, physicians, physician assistants and nurses with both continuing education credits and a unique foundation that can be used to pursue specialized, poised-for-growth health care fields.
If you’re a pharmacy student in need of remediation courses, Shenandoah offers a swath of those online, too.
As you can see, summer is the time to begin anew and grow with Shenandoah!
