   Distance Education - Online courses   

Online Courses are delivered entirely over the Internet and are the educational equivalent of traditionally delivered courses.  The enticement of an online courses is that your attendance on campus is not usually required.  This allows you the flexibility to fit a college course into your busy schedule, saving time and travel expenses.  Class is held when you have time whether early in the morning before work, after dinner, or after the late news.

Please note: some courses may have specific requirements such as proctored exams, on-campus labs or meetings, or require specific software packages.  For more information on a specific course, please select the appropriate semester below and the specific class number.
