Format

A Bachelor of University Studies degree can be completed 100% online. OSU provides online degree choices to fit your busy schedule. Using the latest technologies, we put quality online courses within reach for students who are not able to attend classes on campus.

 

OSU uses Canvas for our learning management system and hosts your online courses and content. From lectures to discussions to submitting assignments, all course interaction is completed entirely online. All you need is the necessary discipline and access to computer capabilities. All instructors who teach online learning courses are the same quality faculty who teach on-campus courses.

 

Curriculum

By combining coursework across disciplines, students work with an adviser to tailor the curriculum to reach unique academic and career goals. Students complete 120 semester hours with at least 40 upper-division hours. Students choose two or three areas of concentration, which may include coursework from the requirements for a minor or certificate or a group of related courses approved by a departmental representative. If you have an AA, AS, or AAS degree, you can use college credit earned in your major in one area of concentration. Students work with an advisor in one of OSU's academic colleges..
