Online education
that makes dreams possible
At the Michael and Anne Greenwood Center for Online Excellence, we believe students should have access to a high-quality, affordable business education regardless of their schedule or location. To help students realize their dreams, the center delivers online business courses 24/7 with access from anywhere in the world. Students can earn many business degrees entirely online or take a class to solve a scheduling conflict. And if you’re already employed, an online degree is a great way to advance your career while continuing to work.
Since 1958, all Spears Business academic programs, including those online, have been accredited by the AACSB International, the highest standard of achievement for business schools worldwide. Taught by the same full-time faculty who teach on campus, Spears Business online degree programs have received high national rankings from respected organizations like US News & World Report.
Online benefits without online compromises
Flexible schedule
Online education provides the opportunity to view lectures on your timetable while you continue to work full-time, travel or manage family life. Online classes are also helpful for students on campus who have a schedule conflict. An added benefit to online learning is being able to watch lectures and contribute to class discussion threads from just about anywhere. You choose where and when to learn.
Degree portability
By earning your business degree online, you no longer have to miss classes because of corporate travel or quit a degree program because your company relocates you. Technology helps bring online students right into the classroom. Portability of your academic degree should not be considered a luxury: it is a necessity in today’s business environment.
Networking
While working on team projects and threaded discussion boards, you will have the opportunity to build connections with classmates from different locations and a variety of occupations. And let’s not forget about building relationships with your professors, who have tons of connections in the business world.
Online education and your company
Stay competitive in your field by obtaining access to those who have dedicated their life to learning and teaching business success. Online programs give you skills you can immediately use. Talk to your employer about sponsoring your education program. We’d be happy to meet with your management to describe the program and its benefits.
Invest in your future
Continuing your education not only expands your knowledge, but also can lead to higher income, career advancement and better work benefits. The door to new opportunities is waiting for you to make the move to online education, and you should choose the Spears School of Business at Oklahoma State University!
