August 12, 2024
The programs, including several available online, will help fill gaps in the job market and give students new opportunities to address real-world problems.
With more than 200 degree and certificate programs, Virginia Commonwealth University offers students options in an array of academic disciplines, and the chance to mix and tailor them to whatever their career – and life – goals may be. Those programs are constantly changing to meet real-world challenges, with new majors and more. In the upcoming academic year, VCU is offering four new degrees, three new certificates and 10 new concentrations.
“These bold and creative offerings are future-proofing our students, preparing them for personal and professional success amidst the rapidly changing demands of the AI era,” said Fotis Sotiropoulos, Ph.D., provost and senior vice president for academic affairs. “I commend the dedication and hard work of our innovative faculty members who bring these opportunities to life and drive our university forward. With a continued focus of excellence, impact and access, VCU’s faculty are defining what it means to be an urban R1 research institution in the 21st century.”
