Online, offline or blend, the choice is yours…
Recognized as one of the top university systems in the United States, the University of Massachusetts 5-campus system has been a leader in distance education for over 25 years. Now you can get the best that UMass has to offer by getting your university degree online, offline or blended.
Recently, UMassOnline added another way to learn that allows local students to get the best of both worlds. You can choose to get your degree through a campus near by and learn in a traditional classroom setting, choose to access fully online anytime or anywhere, or blend the flexibility and convenience of online with the experience of the face to face classroom.
Blended Learning
Blended learning simply defined is a combination of the physical face-to-face classroom with a portion of the course curriculum delivered online. Blended learning is the ‘perfect’ mix for those who want some face-to-face classroom experience but also want the flexibility of taking some elements online.
