Lifelong and Distance Learning
Just because you’re no longer on campus doesn’t mean that you can’t finish your degree or start a new one. There are many degrees – whether associate, undergraduate, or graduate – that you can complete either online or at one of OHIO’s regional campuses.
Ohio University offers undergraduate instruction on both the Athens campus and the regional campuses. Undergraduate programs, designed to contribute to intellectual and personal development and career goals of students, emphasize liberal studies.
Undergraduate major programs, pre-professional, and professional programs prepare students for employment in a variety of careers and for continued study. Two–year technical and associate’s degree programs, reflecting employment opportunities, as well as the general career interests of students, are taught primarily at the regional campuses.
At the Athens campus, instruction is combined with residence life and other extracurricular programs in an effort to create a collegiate experience integrating learning and living.
