Distance Education
gutter
If you spend your days earning a living or raising a family, meeting your educational goals can pose both time and schedule conflicts. You need a university willing to provide opportunity education for you. Texas Woman's University is committed to ensuring our students have every opportunity to become whatever they want to be.

What is Distance Education?

A distance education (DE) course is one in which over 50 percent of the instruction is delivered via satellite, compressed video, Internet, or other electronic means. All distance learning courses/programs are subject to the same academic standards as those offered on campus.

A blended course is a distance education course that requires mandatory, face-to-face meetings. However, the majority of it is online.

Distance education courses are highly interactive. In addition, face-to-face sessions are offered in more convenient class locations, and the need for weekly commutes to campus is virtually eliminated. TWU faculty work hard to bring a full experience to distance learning students, and students receive quality feedback and communication with faculty.
