Online Graduate And Undergraduate Degree Education

Ellis University offers a wide range of online degrees at the Master's, Bachelor's and Associate's level that combine vocational training for many of today's hottest careers with the convenience and versatility demanded by adult students with busy working lives. Ellis delivers high quality programs in Arts and Sciences, Behavioral Sciences, Business and Education via the latest online teaching methods and technology.

The Online Learning Advantage

Ellis aims to integrate the best in traditional university teaching with the flexibility and independence of modern learning styles. This approach is of great benefit to highly-motivated, self-directed adult learners who may need to combine their studies with the demands of a busy career or domestic responsibilities. In this way, students who are unable to attend on-campus classes can gain access to vocational training on the schedule that's right for them.

Career-Focused Learning Via Cutting-Edge Technology

Ellis uses state-of-the-art online teaching techniques to deliver its programs, such as streaming video, online simulations and individual communication methods. In this way, students working at home can remain in touch with teachers and fellow classmates, and courses involve real-life scenarios, enabling students to put what they are learning into practice. The interactive classroom environment is founded on the latest adult learning theory, and course participants chat and discuss topics just as they would in a traditional campus-based lesson.

Ellis University has been regionally accredited by The Higher Learning Commission and is a member of the North Central Association of Colleges and Schools. It has also received national accreditation from the Distance Education and Training Council.
