We offer three graduate certificates across our two programs, see which one is right for you.
Time
On average, students complete certificate programs in 1 year. However students have the flexibility to enroll in courses at their own pace. Students who do not enroll in at least one class for more than two consecutive semesters will become inactive and need to reapply for admission to their program.
Credential
Students will earn a Graduate Certificate in Precision Medicine, Clinical Pharmacogenomics or Comprehensive Medication Management issued by the Graduate School of the University of Florida.
Format
Offered entirely online to not disrupt students professional or personal commitments.
Tuition
The Certificates in Precision Medicine and Clinical Pharmacogenomics are $448.73 per credit hour plus fees. The Certificate in Comprehensive Medication Management is $650.00 per credit hour plus fees. Tuition is subject to change.
Earning a Graduate Certificate Online
Completing an online graduate certificate is a fast and convenient way to pursue your educational and career goals.
At the University of Florida, each course is divided into modules covering specific topics and contains opportunities to enhance learning through discussion topics and case studies while using the vast selection of materials and databases available through the UF library. Students have the ability to interact with course instructors and other students in many different ways using the technology available through the online learning management system.
You’ll learn from clinicians and researchers who are paving the way in pharmacogenomics, precision medicine, and comprehensive medication management:
- Courses are taught by 20+ faculty leaders in pharmacogenomics, precision medicine, and comprehensive medication management
- $30 million in pharmacogenomics and precision medicine research awards
- More than 1,000 graduate students and clinicians trained/educated through the Precision Medicine graduate program and UF Health Precision Medicine Program, and the Individualized Medicine Program (previously known as the Medication Therapy Management Program).

Transfer Credits From a Graduate Certificate to Masters
Credits taken to earn the graduate certificate can be transferred toward the online Master of Science in Pharmacy with a major in Pharmaceutical Sciences and a concentration in Precision Medicine or Individualized Medicine. Students must earn a grade of “B” or higher to transfer credits and must be formally admitted to the master’s degree program for credits to transfer. All coursework counted toward your master’s degree must be completed during the seven years immediately preceding the term in which the degree is awarded.
