WKU offers flexible pathways to degree attainment, allowing students to earn a complete degree online or choose to take a combination of face-to-face and online courses. Courses are delivered on the web in semester-based online classes and non-semester-based classes in the on demand format.
There are more than 1,700 courses available each year, and over 80 degree programs and certificates at the graduate and undergraduate levels. In addition, there are several degree programs that allow students to complete a significant portion of required courses online, offering additional options for flexibility within their program of study.
WKU Online also offers an on demand option that provides flex-paced, asynchronous online courses for students to pursue educational experiences outside the traditional college classroom. On demand courses are offered to help undergraduate and graduate students who, because of distance or time constraints, cannot participate in traditional on-campus or semester-based online courses. Over 100 web courses are available and WKU faculty teach all courses.
