OVERVIEW

Program Overview

The Quantitative Research, Assessment, and Evaluation in Education (QRAE) Certificate supports Doctoral and Master’s students’ development of research and professional skills required for educational measurement, evaluation, and quantitative data analysis.  Acquiring a range of quantitative research skills can offer you flexibility to address the practical research problems that you encounter! The Certificate is earned on completion of four 3-credit hour courses that you select from the “Courses” list below.
