We’re looking for adults who know the value and versatility of this degree, and are prepared to make the commitment to earn it. You’ll work hard in this program, but it won’t disrupt your life.

Accelerated courses speed your progress and understanding

You’re not starting from zero, so our content and approach won’t waste your time. Our academic focus integrates theory and application. You’ll not only learn the concepts, but you’ll also understand why and how what you’re learning matters in the real world. And more than that, this knowledge can take you where you want to go with your work and your career.

Our small class size stimulates group interaction and encourages students to share personal experiences. You’ll learn from each other as well as from our gifted faculty. You’ll relate to your instructors as coaches, role models and facilitators. Our three-semester credit hour courses are completed in eight-week sessions.

• Contemporary political and social issues;
• Individual behavior and group dynamics;
• Ways to deal with conflict;
• How to create opportunities for cooperation
• The diversity of individual beliefs, values and attitudes in our society.
