Tusculum College will be offering online courses this summer for students wanting to begin or continue their studies off-campus.
In addition to the regular summer catalog, the college will offer more than 25 online courses including topics in business, education, English, history, human resource development, mathematics and sociology during summer term. Each course will be offered in an 8-week format and will consist of four-credit hours.
“The online course option allows students to take additional coursework during the summer months on their own time and schedule,” said Dr. Ron May, vice president of academic affairs at Tusculum College. “The curriculum is adjusted to the online format and the professors will make themselves accessible during the timeframe of the course for additional support.”
All students, including incoming freshmen, will be able to take these courses for the same cost as on-campus summer tuition courses. Courses are available to new and currently registered students and for both students in the Residential and Graduate and Professional Studies programs.
Summer online courses will include: Fraud in Organizations; Special Topic – Business Lessons in Social Media; Income Tax 1: Personal; History, Philosophy and Principals of Education; Comparative International Pedagogy; Composition and Rhetoric; Composition, Research and Rhetoric; World Literature; U.S. History Survey I; U.S. History Survey II; Organizational Performance Management; Introductory Algebra; Quantitative Applications; Elementary Statics; Compensation and Benefits; Personal Selling/Customer Satisfaction Management; Employment and Labor Law; Marketing Promotion; Sport and Society; Officiating Games and Sports; Organization, Administration and Supervision of Physical Education, Health and Wellness; Essentials of Psychology; Principles and Social Instruction, and Transition Strategies for Special Needs Students.
