Online Degrees

The applied studies program addresses the needs of individuals whose educational objectives cannot be met through traditional degree programs. It provides a professionally accommodating entry point for students with previous educational and technical competencies to develop an individualized B.S. degree.

Self-Designed Program

Students complete at least two areas of study, with at least one area having an occupational direction. Technical courses taken at a technical college may be used to complete one area of study. The first area of study requires at least 27 credits of technical or occupational courses. The second area of study requires at least 18 credits of additional courses selected across the curriculum to meet specific career objectives. All courses must be selected in consultation with an adviser.
