University of Phoenix - Online

The power of the Internet offers a wide range of education options to any willing student with a computer.

The University of Phoenix is one of those options. For more than 30 years, University of Phoenix has offered an innovative approach to higher education. With its unique focus on the needs of working students, this educational institution provides educational opportunities that are convenient and accessible, as well as up-to-date and applicable to the real world.

The mission of University of Phoenix is to provide access to higher education opportunities to students who may not otherwise be available to earn a college degree, due to working full-time. This online institution gives students a way to self study in order to develop the knowledge and skills necessary to achieve their professional goals, improve the productivity of their organizations, and provide leadership and service to their communities.

The University of Phoenix offers flexible scheduling that allows students to enroll at any time, as well as convenient learning formats that enable students to learn at times and places of their choosing. Students can choose a local campus location. Class schedules are set to accommodate working students instead of the other way around. Online classes offer another convenience, giving students the freedom to study when and where they choose. These two elements combine to help expand educational opportunities to students who may have previously been excluded by personal, geographic or employment circumstances.

In another effort to make higher education more accessible, University of Phoenix does not require students to take college entrance exams or submit essays. Instead, it requires students to be employed or to have access to an organizational environment that allows them to apply the concepts learned in its online courses.

These concepts have allowed Phoenix to provide working students all over the world with an online opportunity to continue their education while earning a living.

Phoenix offers many online associate, undergraduate, graduate and doctorate programs in the areas of finance, business and management. Go to www.phoenix.edu to learn more.
