The asynchronous courses provide students with the most flexibility for student scheduling whether you are studying part-time or full time. Synchronous courses include mandatory, scheduled meeting times through real-time video conferencing/meeting software (i.e., Zoom, Google Meets, Virtual Classroom, and others). Contact Admissions and Recruitment if you want to learn more about our fully online degree options.
