Rutgers Graduate Certificate in Maker Education

This ten-credit online graduate certificate program is open to all with a bachelor’s degree, and is available to students enrolled in master’s and doctoral programs in many fields at Rutgers. The certificate program is designed to help educators and practitioners receive the education and resources necessary for developing competence and confidence to start and supervise a #makerspace in a school, community center, or other learning space. Participants will gain proficiency in maker-based learning activities or projects, including the development of curricula and assessments meeting common standards in STEM subjects. Participants will also explore how maker-centered projects can be leveraged as a vehicle for meaningful, discovery-based learning in mathematics, science, computer science, as well as integrated STEM/STEAM curricula.
