Dixie State College Communication
Degree Completion Program:
Organization&Leadership
Dixie State College is now offering an exciting opportunity for professionals to complete a Bachelor’s degree
in as few as 18 months, depending on communication classes you have already taken.  Students who have completed General Education requirements and have at least 60 credits of coursework (or an Associate degree) complete one course at a time, usually in 4 weeks, then move on to the next course with a different instructor, attending classes one night per week. 
Additional coursework during each week is completed online and at home. 

This degree has broad application to almost any field: for leaders or those who are working toward a leadership position, for business owners, working parents, and for those who want the personal accomplishment of completing their Bachelor’s degree.

The next cohort begins Fall 2011. For more information about this unique program, including requirements for application, please contact James Chase (see below).
