Students can now earn an associate degree in General Studies at Southeastern Louisiana University via distance learning. Students can choose from courses delivered in a variety of electronic formats. Compressed video courses can be taken at Southeastern's St. Tammany Center, located on Koop Drive near the Interstate 12 Abita Springs exit, and the Baton Rouge Center on Essen Lane and, in some cases, at other state university campuses.
Students can take Internet or telecourses in their own homes.
Telecourses are aired on the Louisiana Public Broadcasting System and St. Tammany Parish government access channels. Or, perhaps someone hasn't been in school for a while and is contemplating coming back. This coming fall, for example, we expect to offer a bachelor's degree in organizational communication via distance education. Doucette said the General Studies associate degree program offers specialty options in arts and humanities, behavioral sciences, natural sciences and applied sciences. Most courses can be used toward a bachelor's degree.
