Program Overview

General Professional Studies (GPS) is an adult undergraduate degree completion program designed for working adults who wish to enrich their lives and advance their careers through a flexible, competency-oriented program aimed at self-discovery and personal growth. Coursework is conducted fully online in a collegial and collaborative environment using learning management technologies optimized for diverse learners and learning styles, and is completed in less than two years with transfer credit. Students complete unique workplace-related projects tailored to their current jobs, special interests, and career aspirations. The focus is on building the cognitive and interpersonal skills that characterize the most successful professionals, not on memorizing information. Students graduate with a portfolio of artifacts ready to show employers the knowledge and skills gained throughout the program.
