Quantum Buckyball Posted February 9, 2015 Posted February 9, 2015 What's your thought on this? Its a non-profit, accredited online school that offers business and computer science programs with ultra-low tuition fees. 2K for n AS degree and 4K for a BS degree.
Chubberubber Posted February 9, 2015 Posted February 9, 2015 Depends on what you need the degree for. If you just want to have the knowledge of these fields then it sounds like a great idea. If you're looking to do research or hope that this degree would add to your academic protfolio then it's a defferent story...
Sarah Winnon Posted February 10, 2015 Posted February 10, 2015 It is also worth considering the impact a UoPeople degree can have on your employ-ability. I work for UoPeople and hear from many of our students and graduates that their studies at UoPeople opened doors previously closed for them. Preparing students for the workforce is a high priority of UoPeople. Beginning in the classroom, the rigor of the accredited degree programs is ensured by world-class academic leaders and academic partners. UoPeople leaders come from universities such as the University of Oxford, Columbia University, and Yale University, and partners include organizations such as the United Nations, UNESCO, and the Clinton Global Initiative, among others. These partnerships provide many opportunities for UoPeople students. Outside of the classroom, UoPeople students receive internships, mentorships, and job opportunities from the global corporate partners, including Microsoft and Hewlett Packard. Finally, by focusing on career planning, resume writing,interviewing, and job searching skills, UoPeople’s Career Service Center prepares students to find jobs after graduation. Hope that helps add food for thought to your question! uselesstheory, bhr, dhouriet and 4 others 7
