 PROGRAM SUMMARY
Contracting with the Federal Government requires knowledge of a vast array of statutes, regulations, guidelines, forms,  processes and procedures. On-the-job experience alone seldom provides the broad, robust, and detailed knowledge  needed in this most challenging and ever-changing field. Old Dominion University’s Master’s Certificate Program in  Government Contracting is designed to provide a structured educational experience that guides the student through the entire procurement process, including all of the steps involved in identification of requirements, procurement design, source selection, administration, termination, and closeout.  

 The Master’s Certificate Program demonstrates a commitment to excellence in contract management and mastery of  the core principles, regulations and procedures that govern today’s acquisition and procurement contracts. The program  provides a practical, well-rounded understanding of government contracting. Obtaining the certificate demonstrates  knowledge of contract management and negotiations to customers, peers, supervisors and management, and opens  doors for career advancement opportunities with greater acquisition and contract management responsibility.

 PROGRAM CURRICULUM
 Admission to the Master's Certificate Program in Government Contracting will be available to any member of the DoD  AT&L workforce who holds a baccalaureate degree. This requirement may be waived if an individual can demonstrate  relevant experience in government contracts, procurement and acquisition. Individuals who meet the minimum educational  requirement and are interested in entering the contract, procurements and acquisition field are invited to apply. An  application for admission is required. 

 PROGRAM CANCELLATIONS
