Oregon State Univiversity Extended campus offers online courses - Deborah Zahler, Barometer
Location may no longer be a deciding factor for high schoolers, post-graduates or people just looking to further their education. The Oregon State University Extended Campus offers online undergraduate distance programs, graduate programs, professional programs and college courses. Distance courses follow the OSU quarter schedule. Last year students participated from 45 states, Canada and several foreign countries. Online courses have been offered at OSU since as early as 1995.... Currently, there are 1,366 students currently enrolled in 2,199 courses. "I have a larger group of students (online) than live class. They are mostly older than average, working professionals, with a lot of questions," said Mark Reed, professor for Wildland Fire Ecology online course.
