Courses are taught by regular UW-Green Bay faculty. New is the opportunity to earn a minor equivalent to the minors earned by students in the regular on-campus program, according to Dorothy Igl Stepien, program director. Extended Degree students have always completed an area of emphasis in a subject they want to study in depth. Now they also can earn minors in Accounting, Business Administration, English, Human Development, Psychology, Sociology, or Women's Studies. Minors are recorded on students' transcripts.
Students have several options for taking classes and earning credits.
It's the second year of Internet course offerings. Students also transfer prior college credits and may seek credit for prior learning or by examination. About 275 students are enrolled in the UW-Green Bay Extended Degree program. While most live in Northeast Wisconsin, others live across the state and in Illinois, Minnesota, and Upper Michigan. The rain site is Howe Elementary School.
