Business & Marketing Education: Online Master’s Degree
See all courses in the program
Courses may be taken individually by a post-baccalaureate student or as part of a master’s degree.
The business and marketing education online courses are interactive and semester-long. Courses are based on a weekly format that includes lecture, assignments, text readings and discussion. Students can choose the most convenient times to complete course work, being mindful of weekly deadlines. Be aware that summer semester classes are only eight weeks in length and require students to work at a greatly accelerated pace in comparison to the 16-week fall and spring semesters.
All students in the business and marketing education program are required to take Research Applications for Career and Technical Education, LTC (C&I-V) 8190, either the first or second semester after entering the program. Students may take other courses concurrently with LTC (C&I-V) 8190. Concepts explored in LTC (C&I-V) 8190 will contribute to a student’s success in all other course work. Students may be allowed to take LTC (C&I-V) 8190 later in the program of study with permission from the faculty advisor. Students may substitute alternate courses in some instances, with advisor’s approval.
