Press-Gazette highlights online learning, new engineering tech degrees

The Green Bay Press-Gazette on Monday (Aug. 26) got a jump on Convocation and gave readers a front-page look at what’s new at local colleges and universities, including our own. Reporter Patti Zarling spoke with Provost Julia Wallace about how UW-Green Bay is keeping up with evolving demands, tripling online class offerings in recent years and collaborating to provide in-demand programming. “We’re seeing an increasing population of students who live on campus who prefer to take classes online,” Wallace said. “We want to keep those courses open for older people who can’t come to campus, so we have added more.” The story also looks at UW-Green Bay’s partnerships, including the collaborative engineering technology degrees approved in July by the UW System Board of Regents.
