Hybrid Programs
Hybrid courses combine the best of both worlds—online learning with some on-campus instruction. You’ll complete part of your coursework online while attending scheduled in-person sessions for hands-on learning, labs, or discussions. Hybrid classes offer flexibility while still providing face-to-face engagement.
