Adult Degree ProgramS Overview The mission of the Adult Degree Programs is to assist adults in personal, professional and spiritual development, equipping them to impact their community. Traditionally, college education has been available only to those who were able to spend several years away from work and usually away from home. Corban University offers both campus-based and online adult degree completion programs, Corban Accelerated Online, and testing services, all of which allow busy professionals to earn a bachelor’s degree. College credit may also be awarded for learning-related life experience. Corban’s adult degree program majors are designed especially for working adults with a minimum of two years of college credit (60 semester hours). Class sizes are limited to accommodate the experiential learning techniques employed in the classroom. Course content is focused on practical application to the everyday life and occupation of the adult student and campus classes are conveniently scheduled one night a week. Both the campus and online formats are 17 months in length. Online degree program classes in Business & Organizational Leadership, Healthcare Administration and Family Studies utilize Corban’s intranet course management system for weekly class discussion and small group interaction.
