UNCG Online Degree Program Named Tops in State - dBusiness News
The online Master of Arts degree in Liberal Studies has been named the state’s top university-level distance learning initiative for 2004-05 by an association devoted to online education. This is the second year in a row that UNCG has won the award from the N.C. Distance Learning Association. Last year the university’s Fast Forward program for high school juniors and seniors received the honor. In announcing this year’s award, the association called the online master’s program a “hands down” winner. “This program clearly provides educational opportunities to individuals who would not have had access to traditional face-to-face classes, and it has a curriculum that is extremely innovative and diverse,” said Kenneth M. Elliott, chair of the NCDLA awards committee. “It has the potential to be the best example of the use of distance education both in North Carolina and in the nation.”
