Stay engaged from anywhere
The Center for Digital Education
Our world-class education gives you the flexibility to learn anywhere, anytime. And that educational experience should be every bit as engaging as the on-campus classroom.
Cutting-edge learning formats
From initial analysis to content development to final delivery, instructional designers work closely with faculty to develop curriculum, whether for a brief online learning component, a fully online course or complete degree programs.
Video and multimedia experts also contribute to create rich media resources that promote and support your learning. Located in the heart of the school in Bauer Hall, our studio and recording facilities include audio and webinar suites, green screen studios, and digital publishing capabilities. These resources enable the Center for Digital Education (CDE) staff to team with faculty and other experts to produce exceptional video, audio and multimedia content.
Publishing specialists work to deliver content on time and to the highest standards, including copyediting, adherence to CDE house style, and full copyright and accessibility checking.
Engaging, insightful content
Together with the CDE's full-time eLearning support team, our professors and instructors collaborate to create compelling experiences that rival in-person learning for students, alumni and others in terms of course content and engagement.
