Created in partnership with the Office of Interdisciplinary Graduate Programs (OIGP), the Intercultural Competence Mentorship Certificate (ICMC) provides graduate students with a mentorship skillset specific to intercultural competence development. The program will improve their appeal to employers and ultimately benefit the sectors, including higher education, in which they work. The learning outcomes of the certificate will also personally enrich participants because mentoring others effectively demands a commitment to life-long learning.
The certificate is open to non-degree seekers, currently-enrolled Purdue graduate students, and students who wish to include it as a component of an interdisciplinary graduate degree.
To apply for the ICMC, go to Graduate School. Materials to submit include a current transcript, a statement of purpose describing your interest in intercultural competence mentorship along with any relevant educational or experiential background, and other general information.
