Labor Studies Degree Program
Labor Studies Online
Labor Studies offers online courses and degrees to meet the needs of students seeking distance education opportunities. With the wide array of online course offerings, it is possible for students to fulfill degree requirements for all Labor Studies degrees entirely online.
Labor Studies Online courses are designed to be flexible and are very similar to classroom courses in content and workload. As in a classroom, online students complete readings and other assignments and then discuss them with their instructor and classmates. The difference is that these discussions take place completely online through the IU Oncourse system (oncourse.iu.edu).
Labor Studies Online courses include students from all eight IU campuses and are available to students 24 hours a day, seven days a week.
The Labor Studies Online faculty includes IU campus-based Labor Studies faculty and nationally and internationally known instructors. The Labor Studies program offers students opportunities to study online with authors like Michael Yates, economist and author of Why Unions Matter.
Students enroll in Labor Studies Online classes the same way they enroll in classroom courses—through the Office of the Registrar at an IU campus. Faculty advisors provide guidance to Labor Studies Online students throughout their course of study. The tuition and fees for online classes are the same as for traditional classroom courses.
