Online Learning

What is Online Learning?

• Online learning is a teaching system providing quality graduate education online, typically with a limited, if any, on-campus component. The Kellstadt Graduate School of Business is delivering courses powered by Blackboard, a course management system.
• Online learning courses must be completed during the quarter they are offered. The online learning environment is asynchronous. Check the course syllabus/schedule for more information
• Please understand that just as each professor in a face-to-face course may have requirements that are different from those of another professor, even when two professors are teaching the same course, so too will the expectations and syllabi differ amongst professors teaching online courses. It is your responsibility to become familiar with the requirements in each course.

 Online Learning Policies and Procedures
