Tusculum has officially changed the name of the non-traditional academic programs formerly known as Graduate and Professional Studies to Adult and Online Studies.
“The faculty and academic leadership have selected a name that more accurately reflects both the audience the programs are designed to help and the modalities available to deliver program content,” said Dr. Paul Pinckley, vice president for enrollment management, marketing and financial aid.
He added that the name change has not resulted in a significant change in the individual programs offered through Adult and Online Studies, and graduate programs continue to be offered and housed under the Adult and Online Studies umbrella.
Classes will continue to be offered in Greeneville, Morristown and at the Knoxville Regional Center.
Programs in Adult and Online Studies include the Associate of Arts in General Studies, which is offered online; the Bachelor of Science in business administration, which is offered online and on-site; the Bachelor of Arts in psychology and the Bachelor of Arts in interdisciplinary studies.
Graduate degrees include the Master of Arts in education, curriculum and instruction concentration, which is offered online; the Master of Arts in teaching; the MBA, which is offered online and on-site at the Greeneville campus and Knoxville Regional Center; the Master of Arts in talent development, which is offered online; and the Master of Science in nursing, family nurse practitioner concentration.
