Graduate Certificate in Hidden Student Populations
Oklahoma State University

Program Details

If you are interested in pursuing a degree that focuses on those whose members are not easily visually identified, this online education degree may be for you. “Hidden student populations” are those who usually do not have a formal voice in the system and may want to remain anonymous, often due to having experienced socially stigmatizing trauma. Examples of this group include children from such situations as:  

  • Foster care
  • Sexual violence
  • Drug or alcohol addicts
  • Housing insecurities
  • Third Culture Kids

This online education degree has been framed by the latest research that led to a better understanding of the specific needs, challenges, and opportunities for support shared across these populations.
