The University of
Illinois has established
The Global Campus to
further its land-grant
mission to expand
educational
opportunities for the
Illinois community and
beyond. One of the
finest public
universities in the
nation is opening a new
online campus to
non-traditional and
place-bound students,
who can gain the
academic and career
benefits of a University
of Illinois education
without the barriers of
location and scheduled
class times.
The Global Campus
intends to become a
national leader in
online education,
focused on innovation,
quality, superior
instruction, service,
and accessibility. Our
goal is to provide
access to high-quality
online education
programs that merit the
University of Illinois
name. All degree and
certificate programs are
created in collaboration
with the colleges and
academic departments at
the University's
residential campuses at
Urbana-Champaign,
Chicago, and
Springfield. The
curricula are developed
by world-class
University of Illinois
faculty who are leaders
in their fields of
study. Upon completion
of a program, your
degree will be from the
fully accredited
University of Illinois.
Degree and certificate
programs in Education
and Nursing start in
January 2008. Additional
programs will launch
later in 2008 and
beyond.
