Can I get a Bachelors Degree in Civil Engineering online?

My work schedule doesn’t allow for a school schedule. So I’d like to get a degree online. I don’t really care where the college is out of, just that I can do it online.

Surprisingly, there is an ABET-accredited degree in Civil Engineering, offered by the University of North Dakota.

Devry or pheonix. Wanna do an online degree in accounts, finance or business, any advice?

If there are any other accredited universities i welcome those suggestions as well. Thanks
Sorry didn’t mention that I reside in the Caribbean.

Neither of them is a good idea. There are much better distance learning opportunities out there. Captain Janeway brought up Empire State College. Guess what? I attend Empire State College. The main advantage is that it is part of the State University of New York system. It also has a low tuition rate. They also offer a BS in Business, Management, and Economics. There are many students around the world that attended ESC. For example, I had an American who was living in China in my macroeconomics course with me. My mentor (just an another name for "advisor") says he talks to students all over the world on a daily basis. ESC is also unique because it requires students to create a degree plan and back it up with a rationale essay. Here is the website: http://www.esc.edu/esconline/online2.nsf/ESChome.html

However, there are plenty of non-profit schools that provide distance learning. So it is best to do some investigation. You already have two glowing endorsements from two different schools. But it is also best to look at who else offers what you want.

Go to www.petersons.com for more ideas. They also list for-profits, so forewarned is forarmed.

Good luck to you.
