Graduate Studies

Mathematics, Graduate CertificateMathematics, Graduate Certificate 18 Credits

The Graduate Certificate in Mathematics aims to improve mathematics education and student achievement by focusing on two specific research-supported areas. First, by deliveringhigh-quality content-based knowledge critical to student achievement, and second, by targeting in-service teachers who desire to teach dual credit in high school, given that dual-credit/dual-enrollment students are more likely to persist in college and are more likely to complete a bachelor’s degree in less time than those who did not attempt college credits inhigh school. Graduate courses for this program will be available to match in-service teacher’s schedules—evenings and during summer sessions—taught on the main campus andlive-interactive by Utah Valley University’s full-time faculty.


Matriculation Requirements:

1. Application for admission to the program.2. Bachelor's degree required, Mathematics Endorsement 4, from an accredited institution.

Graduate Studies

Physician Assistant Studis, M.P.A.S.Physician Assistant Studies, M.P.A.S. 95 Credits

The Utah Valley University Master of Physician Assistant Studies is a two-year graduate level degree that prepares students to successfully pass the Physician Assistant NationalCertification Examination (PANCE). Using evidence-based medicine, engaged learning, and early patient-provider experiences, the program will reinforce team practice and patientadvocacy/education that will result in excellent patient outcomes.

Through a comprehensive didactic and clinical curriculum, the program will train exceptional PAs that will not only be prepared to provide quality primary healthcare, but will becompassionate, culturally-sensitive, critical thinkers committed to their patients in an ever-changing and diverse population within their respective communities.


A b achelor’s degree from an accredited U.S. institution is the basic requirement for admission into the program (with official transcripts from all institutions attended). The degreecan be in any discipline, provided that the student meets the expected GPA and prerequisite coursework.

The minimum cumulative undergraduate GPA is a 3.0 on a 4.0 scale. The applicant must not have earned below a 2.0 on any pre-requisite coursework , although extenuatingcircumstance may be considered.

Pre-requisite Coursework:

• Microbiology with lab (4 credits)• Ge neral Biology• Chemistry (8 credits), lab may be included• Human Anatomy with lab (4 credits)• Human Physiology (4 credits)

• Medical Terminology • Note: pre-requisite coursework does not include AP courses and should not be older than seven years prior to application to the PA program. The science-based pre-

requisites must be completed prior to the application deadline (November 1 st).

CASPer Test

The CASPer Test is an examination which identifies characteristics of successful student s . The exam can be taken at https://takecaspter.com. Scores are reported uponcompletion of the exam.

Letters of Recommendation

A minimum of three letters of recommendation are required for the application process. Letters should not be from friends or relatives, but should come from a mix ofcurrent professors, current/prior employers , and one letter shou ld be from a PA or a physician. Letters should be submitted directly through the CASPA system prior to theNovember 1 st deadline (no exceptions).

UVU Graduate School Application

The UVU Graduate School Application is required for admission into the PA program. The application will be found on the UVU PA website and is due prior to theNovember 1 st deadline.

Personal Interview

All candidates will be screened and those deemed to meet or exceed basic application requirements will be invited for an interview. This interview does not guaranteeacceptance into the program as students will compete with all other applicants for matriculation into a cohort. Applicants must bring a photo ID to the interview.

Health Care Experience

A minimum of 1, 2 00 hours of health care experience, which is at least six months full-time equivalent. Although this is a minimum for application, t he national averagefor competitive applicants is between 4 , 000-5 , 000 patient contact hours. Hours may be projected to the deadline for early applicants, and applicants are encouraged toapply early.

All forms of health care experience* are considered toward the minimum requirement, with direct hands-on patient care experience being most preferred.

Health care hours are subject to verification; the program may contact supervisors to confirm reported hours. Paid experience is weighted more heavily than volunteer .

* Does not include administrative work in healthcare settings .

Other Determining Factors

Program RequirementsThe Master of Computer Science (MCS) degree at Utah Valley University is an applied graduate program focused on preparing students to enter the local, national, and globalworkforce as leaders and innovators rather than focusing on preparing students to conduct basic research. An MCS degree is considered a professional degree as graduate studentscomplete a graduate project rather than a theoretical or research-based thesis often associated with a Master of Science in Computer Science (MSCS) degree.

The focus of the degree does not mean you cannot explore exciting, cutting-edge new technologies; it just means we will focus your efforts on developing a working project thatapplies your new knowledge rather than focusing your efforts on basic research and writing papers on the topic. One should not assume that the degree's focus on completing aproject means that the MCS does not value writing or presenting presentations. To be a workforce leader and innovator, you must be able to express highly technical and complextopics concisely and clearly. Developing your technical communication skills will always be a part of the MCS.

The MCS requires students to complete 30 hours of course work beyond their undergraduate degree to gain additional breadth and depth. To graduate, students have the option toeither complete the Graduate Coursework Option or Graduate Project Option where they design and develop a large complex project from inception to completion. Students withoutan undergraduate degree in computer science who have a passion for the field are encouraged to apply. In such cases a student can be conditionally admitted while they completean individualized leveling plan designed to bring their skills up to the required level to enter the MCS.

Graduate Studies

NOTE: Graduate policy precludes conditionally admitted students from taking any 6000 level courses. The UVU Computer Science Department cannot waive or alter this graduatepolicy.


The most desirable background for an MCS student is someone with an undergraduate degree in a computer-related field (Computer Science, Computer Engineering, SoftwareEngineering, or a closely related field). The UVU Computer Science Department does not require nor does it use standardized test scores to evaluate the readiness of a candidateto begin the MCS. You will need an overall grade point average of 3.0 or higher on a 4.0 scale. Additionally, you will need to have completed the following UVU or equivalent classeswith a C+ or better:

• CS 2300 Discrete Structures I• CS 2420 Introduction to Algorithms and Data Structures• CS 2810 Computer Organization and Architecture• CS 3060 Operating Systems Theory• MATH 1210 Calculus I

Students graduating with this degree will have abroad grounding in computer science as a discipline and be well equipped to take on leadership roles in a wide range of computing technology-related industries. Student educationwill be focused on developing software systems using current technologies while allowing them the freedom to explore and exploit newtechnologies to solve real-world problems. Students will be required to develop a broad base of competency by passing required courses in large scale implementation, appliedmathematics computing, information management, and software engineering. Electives will allow a student to continue to add breadth to their education or allow them to focus onspecific areas of computer science they find interesting or feel will best advance their professional objectives.


1. Application for admission to the MCS will include letters of recommendation and a statement of purpose.
