Office of Extended Studies

The Office of Extended Studies (OES) is a University-wide administrative unit within the Division of Academic Affairs. Broadly, OES works to extend teaching and learning beyond the traditional classroom. More specifically, the Office is responsible for coordinating off-campus academic programs including but not limited to evening and weekend programs, online degree programs, and a variety of learning opportunities offered for continuing education (CEU) credit. A key focus of OES is to provide outreach services and educational opportunities for non-traditional students at both the graduate and undergraduate levels. Thus, the Office of Extended Studies provides the means by which the University enriches, expands and extends its primary mission of teaching and service.
