Graduate Degree Programs Designed with You in Mind
Union Institute & University's online Master of Arts program is designed for working adults. Pursue graduate-level study with the support of highly qualified faculty, all through a virtual environment you can access from wherever you work or live. Fit your master's work around job and family responsibilities.
While the design of the M.A. program allows you to live and study virtually anywhere, you are not isolated. The online residencies, seminars, and optional face-to-face colloquia at our ground-based centers in California, Florida, Ohio and Vermont offer ongoing support through interaction with peers and faculty members, as well as workshops on the tools of graduate-level research and writing.
UI&U’s Gary Library provides additional support to our learners across the nation by traditional library services, online access to extensive academic databases, and a research engine for locating useful websites.
The difference is our faculty: The M.A. program combines small cohorts of learners with one-to-one support, led by highly qualified faculty who work to ensure you meet your learning objectives. Our faculty are proven experts who will serve as the link to your chosen profession or discipline.
