Distributed Learning

Many of our master's classes are offered online, part of a highly successful network of virtual classrooms developed over the past 30 years. Our program, accredited by the American Library Association and directed by our award-winning faculty and staff, uses state-of-the-art technology to reach students wherever they learn.

Description

Whether you choose to join us in Columbia or stay in your community, distributed learning provides access to these degree programs in our school:

How It Works

Most courses are online, and our faculty members employ a variety of technologies that allow our students to interact, access resources, listen to lectures and complete assignments. Whether students are in a classroom in Columbia or a virtual classroom hundreds of miles away, they participate in live and taped lectures, combined with self-directed coursework online.

Our distributed learning courses feature opportunities to engage with classmates, instructors and the professional community.

Our experience with campus-based delivery, technology and distributed learning techniques allows us to continue to offer a quality education wherever students are, wherever students learn.
