Yeah, I know it sounds strange, but let me explain.
If you’ve been searching for an online degree program, you must have run into the University of Phoenix. If not, then you’ve really not been looking that hard. 
What you may not know, is that in Florida UoP has several “Learning Centers” throughout the state. Now they have announced that they are expanding their hours to provide daytime classes as well.
This is important since until now they have only offered evening hours and weekend courses.
For now, only four learning centers will have the daytime class options (9am to 1pm). These are located:
The Miramar Learning Center, located at 11410 NW 20th Street in Miramar
The Cypress Creek Learning Center located at 550 W. Cypress Creek Road in Fort Lauderdale
The Westshore Learning Center located at 4805 Independence Parkway in Tampa
The South Orlando Learning Center located at 8325 South Park Circle, Suite 100
For more information about these extended hours, you can check out either one of these four websites:
phoenix.edu/centralflorida
phoenix.edu/northflorida
phoenix.edu/southflorida
phoenix.edu/westflorida
Being a fan of the state (since one of my daughters live there) I thought I’d pass this along to all my online degree dorm room buddies from the Gator state.

Someone stuck their head in the online degree dorm room last night and asked:
So, Ben - can you give me a quick primer on taking online courses or getting a
degree online?
Well, it’s going to take a few posts to complete it but here’s the first part:
Part One - Make sure your program is legit:
Ok, so I hope you know by now that taking courses online is a great way to further your
education while keeping your day job.
But how do you separate the reputable programs from the diploma mills that are just out there to
make a profit from giving you a worthless peice of paper?
If you’re considering getting an online degree, the most important point to research
is the school’s reputation. The first thing I’d do it I were looking in to an online program is its accreditation:
If the school has not been properly reviewed, your diploma could be meaningless in the eyes of potential employers.
Here’s the thing - Online colleges and graduate programs are expected to meet the same standards
as traditional institutions. so they should be reviewed by one of the six regional associations that are
recognized by the U.S. Department of Education and the Council for Higher Education Accreditation.
You’ll probably see this accreditation somewhere on the home page of the programs’ website.
If you can’t find it, here’s what you need to do:
Locate the school’s physical headquarters through its website, and
then check with the accreditation association that covers that region.
You also can search the Department of Education’s list.
The next thing you should do is find out how long the college or university has been offering online
courses and/or degree programs.
Even if it’s an established and reputable traditional colleges or grad schools, if they’re first starting
out with online programs then they might not have their act together just yet, and their fumbles can hamper
your learning. I mean, who wants to have to deal the technical difficulties when you’ve got a paper to write?
OK, that’s about it for part 1. In my next post I’ll discuss the type of PC skills you need

Interested in the highly specialized field of Aerospace Engineering?
Here are a few of the colleges that offer online Masters degrees in Aerospace Engineering, starting with the newest program: Georgia Tech
The GT School of Aerospace Engineering currently offers two different master of science (MS) degrees.
The first is the “Master of Science in Aerospace Engineering” degree and is generally referred to as a “designated degree.”
The second is the “Master of Science” degree which is referred to as an “undesignated degree.”
What’s the difference between “designated” and “undesignated”?
Well, according to their website, the designated degree requires that you must have completed all academic course work which is required for a Bachelor of Science in Aerospace Engineering degree.
