Trustees Approve New Certificate Programs In E-Marketing, International Business, And Geographical Information Systems<\/a><\/h2>\n\"Postumus\n\n Lake Superior State University University\u2019s Board of Trustees voted during its Nov. 9 meeting to approve three new certificate programs. They also received updates on the $13.2M construction of the Center for Freshwater Research and Education (CFRE), and activities leading toward a public-private-partnership to build new residence halls.\n\nThe new certificate programs are in E-Marketing, International Business, and Geographical Information Systems (GIS).\n\nCertificates are roughly half the work required for an academic minor, and are specifically tailored for working adults as well as LSSU students regardless of major.
