Overview
This innovative program in Hospitality, Recreation and Tourism at California State University East Bay is offered completely online. Using interactive learning activities, courses are designed to challenge and inspire intellectual growth. Because the courses are all online, students can attend class when they are ready to learn rather than at a specific time, such as in the evening after a full day of work.
The courses are offered Executive Style, meaning that students take two 7-week, 3-unit courses consecutively for 4 semesters (with the exception of the Applied Reasearch Project, which is offered during the 3rd and 4th semesters).
The program is not self-paced; discussions happen asynchronously and students complete weekly assignments. This learning method is different in that students are not only receivers of knowledge but are more actively engaged in their own learning. Students will be asked not only to absorb facts and theories but to discover and create knowledge that is useful in the real world.
