Online Learning

Advance your career on your schedule.


You can balance career advancement with the rest of your life by studying online, on your schedule. This is a world-class healthcare education. No shortcuts. You will be trained by the same faculty who instruct our on-campus students, and you will earn the same sought-after degrees that you would if you were here in person.

How Does Online Learning Work?

Programs generally take between one and three years to complete, with students typically enrolling in two courses each semester. Assignments are completed through the Blackboard learning management system, where students can view lectures, complete assignments, post to a discussion board, and engage with classmates. Cohort and class sizes are small, and students generally are working professionals who learn as much from others as they do from their faculty.
