Goal Statement

Improve distance and on-line learning by coordinating online delivery of education across the entire Montana University System

Goal 1:  Access & Affordability

System Initiatives:  MUS Distance Learning Initiative:

In the 2005 and 2007 legislative sessions, the Montana Legislature appropriated funds specifically aimed at increasing the availability of distance learning in the Montana University System.

With these funds ($300,000 in 2005, $900,000 in 2007) the university system invested in distance learning resources, faculty, and infrastructure. As a result, Montana universities and colleges now offer more than 100 online degrees and over 700 internet courses.

MUS.edu/online is a central location for students, faculty, and the public to find information on distance education opportunities and topics in the MUS.
