“We recognize that many of today’s students seek increased flexibility to better accommodate family schedules, full-time employment or personal passions, but we also understand the importance of quality online learning,” said Executive Vice President and Provost John Wiencek.

“ÐãÉ«¶ÌÊÓƵ’s online degree programs are taught by the same faculty who teach onsite classes, and online students have access to all the resources available to onsite students, including advising, career services, our library (with vast online assets), tutoring, financial aid and help-desk support.”

The new degrees will augment ÐãÉ«¶ÌÊÓƵ’s already popular fully online degrees including a Master of Taxation, Master of Arts in Speech-Language Pathology, Bachelor of Science in Allied Health Care Administration and Bachelor of Science in Nursing (RN to BSN). ÐãÉ«¶ÌÊÓƵ will continue to add additional fully online programs over the course of this year to meet student demands.
