Students (other than those accepted to the Master of Science in Biomedical Quality Systems degree program) may earn the Certificate in Biomedical Quality Systems (BQS) by successfully completing the certificate courses. All of these courses are available in the online distance learning format. Other courses may not be substituted. You must earn a "B" or better in all Advanced Certificate courses. All 12 Advanced Certificate units will transfer towards the MS in Biomedical Quality Systems degree.

You can register for these courses by calling the SDSU College of Extended Studies (CES) at 619-594-5152 or by visiting http://www.ces.sdsu.edu/biomedical.html and clicking on “register for classes”.

Prior to registration in the first course, you should download the Certificate of Completion form (available in Word format) and present it to CBBD at the time of your initial registration. Then after successful completion of the four courses, the form should be submitted, to the address on the form. The certificate will then be mailed out to you. Additionally, you can provide the name and address of your supervisor, and we will notify her/him of your achievement.
