    The military history program uses an online format, a process in which you do not attend lectures but rather learn anywhere you have access to the Internet. Online courses are delivered under the direction of faculty and staff via the World Wide Web using a learning platform called WebCT. This powerful educational technology allows you to get course assignments, ask questions of faculty and other students, and participate in discussions at any time of the day or night. You are provided with Help Desk Support for access issues within the classroom throughout your program.
