Graduate students who choose UJ Accelerated are ready for the next phase in their career. Each program is designed to help you make a transition—whether it’s to a new role at your current job or a new career at your dream job.

We keep our programs small, ranging from 15-35 students per cohort, so we can focus on the success of each student. That means you get personalized support from your faculty advisor, as well as virtual access to the same, renowned academic services offered on our Jamestown campus.

Graduate Degrees

Our master’s degree programs are offered online and taught by a mix of stand-out instructors. Some are full-time faculty who teach almost exclusively at the graduate level. Others are adjunct, clinical, and affiliated faculty members who are practitioners and experts in their fields.

What to expect as a graduate student at UJ.

Students in our graduate programs come from all over the globe—bringing with them different backgrounds and work experience. Our cohort model allows for peer interaction and input, all guided by a faculty member.

Speaking of our faculty, all of our professors have succeeded both academically and professionally. Each has earned their doctoral degree AND worked in the field that they’re teaching. That means they bring real-life work experience—combined with theoretical studies—to the classroom.

No matter which program you choose, each has the same expected outcomes.

UJ Accelerated graduate students will:

  1. Conduct themselves in an ethical manner.
  2. Articulate how diversity in its various forms affects their discipline.
  3. Assess the quality of research findings in their discipline.
  4. Conduct and present appropriate research.
  5. Communicate clearly and effectively, both orally and in writing.
  6. Actively participate in organizations in their communities, outside of the University.

One of the hallmarks of a UJ Accelerated education is our commitment to students.

We offer flexible learning environments and unmatched academic support, including library services and a Writing Center dedicated to graduate student success.

“My professional goals are to take over my father’s counseling practice after I am done with my master’s degree and my doctorate. My favorite thing about attending UJA is how nice the professors are and the close interactions with all of the students!”
