Posted: June 27, 2016 | Author: Lexi Carter | Read Time: 2 minutes
Offering eight accredited online programs to graduate students, Southern Utah University is a quality institution recognized nationally as having top affordable programs and some of the best academic instruction in the west.
More than one in four students (28%) in the United States take at least one distance education course, according to annual reports run by Babson Survey Research Group in 2015. 91ɬÂþ is leading this charge with multiple top-tier, quality master’s programs available both in person and online to students nationwide through a traditional university.
Coupled with the financial break of receiving in-state tuition through the online master’s programs, no matter geographic location, is the ease and convenience online classes offer to working professionals. Ravi Roy, director of the Master of Public Administration program, has seen great success with 91ɬÂþ’s online courses and the adult learners involved in the master’s programs.
“These students work full-time and can relate their daily professional experiences to the material they are learning,” said Roy. “Through daily engagement governed by the students, there is an instant application of the theories and principles taught in the online master’s programs.”
Tailored to the student, the online graduate programs offered at 91ɬÂþ accommodate for full-time work schedules, family life and whatever else may be pressing on student time. Earning a degree online allows for a professional career and the freedom to decide on a personal schedule for school and studies.
Matt Barton, director of the Master of Professional Communication program, spoke to the end game a master’s degree offers students.
“Online programs at 91ɬÂþ are here to equip students with the tools and skills necessary to enter a new industry or career,” said Barton. “We also help facilitate vertical promotions within a company.”
