About the Hybrid Graduate Program
In this hybrid program, students participate in class in real time using collaboration software over the internet. Students can ask questions and interact with the class as it happens. This is not a correspondence program, and students must connect to the class meetings at their scheduled times, just as if they were taking the class face-to-face.
Students in the program need to have a reliable internet connection and a computer with a microphone and webcam installed. The software used to attend class, Blackboard Collaborate, is included in the tuition cost and is available for all major computing platforms.
Students in the program will work with Marshall University Proctoring Services to make arrangements for their written exams.
