In 1995, University System reorganization assigned any off-campus centers to the University of Maine System Network for Education and Technology Services. The University of Maine System centers share a commitment to individual commuter students, assisting in every way possible, to make the college-learning experience a success. Centers offer classrooms, computer labs, study space and University administrative offices. Students may inquire, register, make payments and access statewide library information at the centers. Baccalaureate degrees in business administration and mental health and human services are offered as well as associate degrees in liberal arts, social services, business administration, and library and information technology.
Courses leading toward various baccalaureate degrees are also available.
The centers take full advantage of modern technologies to provide students with courses and information from all the branches of the University of Maine System. Center staffs are knowledgeable about the requirements of their regional campuses and can assist students who wish to make the transition to main campus programs. Both on-site and interactive television instruction allow students a range of choices. The centers specialize in the adult student who is beginning a college experience. The University of Maine at Augusta offers associate degree and baccalaureate degree programs as well as a masters degree from another unit of the University System.
