"The idea is to provide an advanced degree in a way that's more accessible," Karen Morris, a spokeswoman for the Irvine campus, said of the proposed online graduate program in criminology, law and society. "A lot of people are in the work force--they don't have the time or money to go back to grad school for a master's degree for two or three years. This is a way for them to get the same quality course work but do it via the Internet."... (ed. note - this will be the first degree in the UC system to be offered entirely online)
