Dennis King, Director
The
Virtual College is the administrative unit charged with coordinating all distance
learning and off-campus programs for Fort Hays State University.
Distance learning (or virtual learning) is accomplished when students and faculty
are remote or “at a distance” and connected through interactive
technologies, such as interactive television, the Internet, videotape,
or other multimedia. Degree, non-degree, and certificate programs are offered
through the Virtual College for off-campus students who prefer the
convenience of technology-delivered courses. All colleges at Fort
Hays State University--the Colleges of Arts and Sciences, Business and Leadership,
Education and Technology, Health and Life Sciences, and the Graduate School--cooperate
with the Virtual College to extend the institution’s academic instructional
resources to the people of western Kansas and beyond, including out-of-state,
out-of-country, and military personnel. The Virtual College offers both
asynchronous (anytime, any place) and synchronous
(same time, different locations) learning. FHSU utilizes the
following types of virtual learning delivery methods.
