Staying on Track

Distance Learning is ideal for professionals seeking to further their education without disrupting their career track in industry. You will have off-campus access to the exact curriculum you would receive on campus, making it easy to apply classroom learning immediately to your unique work-related challenges.

You can participate in Distance Learning courses in several different ways, allowing you to choose what best fits your schedule:

• In real time through desktop video-conferencing
• Via streaming video to be viewed after the scheduled class time
• Students are also welcome to attend classes on campus when their schedule allows
