Online and Hybrid Courses Designed for Your Schedule
Our certificate and master’s degree programs are designed for working professionals who are finding it increasingly difficult to attend classes on college campuses. We offer two sections of most certificate and master’s degree courses; one online and the other in mixed mode, and promote the use of web/video conferences to bring real-time interactions to online students.
In other words, you may complete and earn a professional certificate or complete your entire master’s degree online without setting foot on campus. You may also take one or more courses in mixed mode (meeting with instructor and classmates once every other week on campus) or you may take some courses online and other courses in mixed mode. Online students may also participate in in-class, face-to-face sessions scheduled for mixed mode students through our extensive use of readily available web/video conferencing technology. The choice is yours depending on your needs and preferences.
The online section of each course mirrors the mixed mode section in terms of objectives, contents, assignments and assessments. The difference is that interactions that occur in a face-to-face environment are facilitated through telecommunication technologies.
All online and mixed mode courses are facilitated through the use of Webcourses@UCF and supported by UCF’s award winning department of Center for Distributed Learning. Two courses (EME6613 Instructional Systems Design and EME6457 Distance Education) won the WebCT Exemplary Online Course Award.
Note: Due to federal regulations, international students may only take one online (web) course each semester. Doctoral level courses are offered in traditional face-to-face, mixed, and web modes.
