I started my education working for an IT degree and like Steve decided it wasn’t for me. The degree it sounds like you are looking for is a web designer and there are several really good programs out there that will earn you a bachelors degree.

http://www.elearners.com/search/online-degrees/web-design.htm

These programs cover all of the grit of web design from TCP/IP to hosting protocols to web and server languages. Being you are in e-commerce there are several deep layers from behind the scenes like the database (I use SQL) and the interface language (I use ASP) as well as the final form page (the easy part). There is really a lot of technology to web site design and with the push to convert programs over to web hosted applications this should be a field with a potential for growth . There is also the art side of design which is really all everyone sees.

Can i top up a dimploma with a masters?

Hi,

I'm 22 yrs old, and working in the HR dept for a local company in Dubai. I wanted to know if there's any way I can do an online dimploma course (online/correspondence - preferably in human resources/public relations) within 1.5 yrs and top it up with a masters degree? If yes, which colleges give that option, because I dont want to do a 3 yr degree course.

Also, is there any college that gives the option to do a degree within 1.5 yrs? Please let me know which colleges are good, and affordable.

Thanks,
Shradha.

Hey, Cajun -

You're right in considering Andrew Jackson University. I am currently enrolled there, and it is both cost-efficient and has a great curriculum. They are nationally accredited, if that makes any difference to you (regional vs. national - no big deal to me). Nowadays, as long as you have the degree from an accredited university, that's all that matters to get the job and make more money. Plus, Andrew Jackson has an impossible to beat sponsored tuition program. Like everyone else, I've been waiting for the "catch" or I've been thinking, "This is too good to be true." But there is no catch and it's really that good - and true. Ashley and Tammy in the Admissions department explained it all to me. I'm sure you can find their information on the website (www.aju.edu). Good luck with whatever school you pick! I hope to see you among my graduating class at aju!

Please help me out - don't know what to do.

I'm a 21 year old male from upstate NY. I've finished high school and started college a couple years ago. My major was Computer Information Systems (Information Technology). Basically I have 64 credits finished, and I have about 10 credits left, 3 or 4 classes. I had some problems in my life which left my last semester with all Fs. So to sum it up, I was a good student until the last semester, and I screwed up the last 3 classes that I had (Biology, Mathematics, Business Presentations). I also had problems with these classes, especially with Business Presentation, because I suffer from panic attacks in nervous situations (giving a speech, etc.). I'm not very good at math, so that contributed somewhat as well, and Biology is something I never cared about. Either way, I have completed alot, over 60 credits, and I have very little left. The classes that I have left are my weaknesses. My questions are these..

1.) Is it possible for me to finish this degree online, even though my last semester's grades are bad?

2.) If yes, is it possible to be ALL online, meaning I don't have to go on a campus? I'm good at this, and every online class I've taken before was a straight A.

3.) How long would it take for me to get this degree? I mean I have alot of credits completed (almost all of them). How would they look at this?

It would really mean alot to me if someone could clear these things up. I do not want to go back to this college and finish these particular classes. I want to finish the degree online, and need to know specifically how. I recently requested a brochure from University of Phoenix as well.

Thank you very much for your help!

Looking for Online Degree for Journalism

austinpqc — Tue, 10 Apr 2007 15:59:48 GMT

Does anybody know of an online program where i can get a degree in journalism or communications with a concentration for journalism?

I went to a 4-year university right out of high school and i'm learning very quickly that the university scene is not for me. i don't want to take a bunch of bogus classes just to write, and i know it will be next to impossible to get a good journalism job without a degree. any help anybody has would be great, thanks!
