Twelve new online degree programs — two master’s degrees and 10 bachelor’s degrees — will be offered beginning Fall 2019 to allow students to pursue an accessible and flexible education. The expansion of Maryville’s online degree portfolio aligns with the University’s student-centered approach, which aims to meet the higher education needs of all adult learners, regardless of location, age or circumstance.
“We are thrilled to continue our online programs expansion. Maryville University offers increased options to determined students whose life situation may not permit a traditional campus or classroom experience,” said president Mark Lombardi, PhD. “New, specialized programs, including senior living management and data science, will position students to capitalize on growing career fields, while liberal arts staples such as English and history will strengthen the quality of the students’ education.”
The new online programs build on nearly 150 years of academic excellence at Maryville and a tradition of innovation that adapts to meet the changing needs of students. In addition, Maryville continues to build on traditional academic programs and will soon expand cutting-edge learning spaces across campus. Nationally ranked Maryville University continues to grow impressively, reporting a 16 percent overall increase in enrollment this year and more than 80 percent growth in the last five years.
