Selecting the Best Degree Attainment Method for You
The MS-TMGT program instructional content can be obtained from a variety of content delivery methods. You have choices!
On-Campus Course Attendance
The 30-36 hour program for MS-TMGT is available "On-Campus" at the following A&M University-Commerce campuses:
Main Campus
Commerce, Texas
Online Course Attendance
Once you are accepted as a student in the Graduate School at A&M-Commerce and have your degree plan approved, you may take the 30 semester hours totally online. Some of our students prefer the online course delivery method for the following reasons.
- Greater flexibility in scheduling
- Less interference with normal family life and employment commitments
- Fuel and time savings driving to a campus location
Combination of On-Campus and Online Attendance
Some students mix the delivery method. Although the course content stays the same, some students prefer a "face-to-face" presentation of material in some selected subject areas. As personal situations or learning choices change, students can migrate back and forth between online and classroom delivery or do both in the same semester.
