Online Equivalence

Most subject areas have plenty of online programs offered by a number of institutions, so if you are wondering whether you can study a specific subject online as opposed to by traditional methods, the answer is most probably yes.

In 2004 there was a survey carried out by the Sloan Consortium, which recorded that 43% of tertiary institutions offered business online, 40% offered humanities, 35% offered IT and computing, 28% offered social sciences and history, 25% offered education, and 24% offered psychology. All other programs were offered by 36% of institutions. Most institutions that offer online programs have their core specialists teaching on these programs, giving the average online degree the same academic standing as a traditional degree.
