College Certificate - International Studies

Students within all majors at UT have the opportunity to enhance their degree with a Certificate of International Studies (CIS). Today’s employers seek graduates who are able to communicate in at least one foreign language, have multicultural knowledge, possess skills and training in negotiating with employees of different cultures and have the basic skills to travel, live and work outside of the United States. The CIS program aims to develop these skills within program participants.

Program Benefits Upon completion of the program requirements, undergraduate students will earn the "Certificate of International Studies" notation on their official UT transcript and will receive an official certificate to complement the UT diploma. Students also receive a sash and cords of distinction to wear at graduation. Participation in this program indicates a student’s commitment to academics and internationalization.
