Are There Engineering Degree Programs Available At Online Colleges?
Nov 7th
Reader’s Question:
I had about two terms in college before I had to stop when I had a child. I took some subjects in engineering in Berkeley California CA. Would this college degree be available online?

Hello, Norie! Yes, this will definitely be available online in Berkeley California CA and you can even have your previous units credited to you as part of your online college degree program. What you need to do is go to your preferred college’s web page and look at how you can credit your past subjects to your online degree program.
There are many available engineering courses online and I am sure that you will have a good set of options in your hand. You should choose which inline degree program to take in the same manner you would choose a traditional education, save for the considerations in location since you will not be traveling to the campus anyway.
You can take your pick at the many available online engineering courses by simply searching Google for “online engineering degree” or “engineering degrees online”. Just double check if the online degree program and the university you have chosen is an accredited one and so you can even limit your search to “accredited online engineering degree” or “accredited engineering degrees online”.
Of course, even though online courses save you time and money, you will still exert the same and probably even more effort to successfully complete the degree. But isn’t it nice to know that you do not have to leave the comforts of your home in Berkeley California CA to pursue your college degree?
Who Offers a Cheap and Fast Online RN Degree?
Nov 2nd
While it’s easy to picture someone being able to get a legitimate philosophy degree from an online school, when it comes to occupations that have practical and extremely important applications, such as that of a registered nurse, then the idea that someone could obtain an online RN degree sounds, to say the least, scandalous. After all, how you can you gain the experience and knowledge necessary for dealing with patients through an online RN degree? How can you be expected to acquire that kind of knowledge?
This attitude stems mostly from common misconceptions about online degrees. While someone who is getting something other than an online RN degree might be able to sit at his home computer eating nachos and answering questions about French grammar while running sentences through an online translator, it isn’t so easy for an online RN degree which requires such a high level of knowledge. Even the nacho-eating French major will eventually have to face the consequences for not learning his lessons, sooner or later, but the restrictions placed on an online RN degree make it as legitimate as any other.
No, someone getting their RN degree online will not learn how to start a patient on an IV by recruiting a very sharp pencil and a potato. While many of the book learning for an online RN degree can take place within the comfort of one’s home, clinical work that teaches online RN degree students how to use their knowledge in real life will take place outside of the home in approved and supervised clinical environments.
Yes, if you want to become an RN, then the option of getting an RN degree online is wide open to you. Studying to go into the medical field, even as an RN which requires a much shorter period of study, is difficult and even more so to do when you’re trying to hold down a full time job. Thanks to online RN degree programs, you can make your dream of being a nurse come true while only being required to put in a fraction of your time outside of home. Your online RN degree will be just as legitimate as any other and will help you get a job in many areas of the medical field.
