The University

The University of Missouri began seriously investigating an external degree- completion program in 2000, working with an existing Bachelor of General Studies Degree Program (BGS). Concerns included the development of Capstone and Writing Intensive courses. The program has entailed training advisors; updating curriculum; revising student services procedures; marketing; and coordinating with other branches of Extension.

Saint Mary-of-the-Woods College (SMWC) expects to launch an interactive fully-online undergraduate degree program in 2010. This program will fill a market need not currently met at SMWC. The program is designed for an online community of learners with a format and focus that appeals to net generation (millennial), neo-millennial, and computer savvy non-traditional students, including military personnel. The General Studies in the new program will focus on seven themes of Leadership for Environmental and Social Justice and will build upon a subset of the existing General Studies. This new program will complement the Woods External Degree (WED), an existing distance education program, established in 1973, that was built on the “correspondence model.” In the new program, students will not be required to come to campus, but will become a vibrant part of the SMWC community by being empowered to explore, discover, and interact through innovative technologies.
