Academics Overview

Academic Programs-Overview

       Blue Marble University is a foreign educational institution. We operate as a virtual university and therefore, all programs are delivered via the internet by distance learning. We offer a number of undergraduate and graduate programs, as well as a variety of 5 year combined bachelor degree doctoral degree programs.

The type of learning method we use is often referred to as “asynchronous” because the Instructor and student are not online at the same time. Because we offer our programs internationally, both our students and our faculty live in different areas and different time zones, and consequently it is not possible to have everyone online together.

Our learning materials are available 24/7 so that every student can learn at his or her pace and at times convenient to them.

We use textbooks as well as internet resources. For nearly all programs, the tuition fees include all learning resources. Textbooks are offered in PDF form for downloading. Internet resources, videos, and websites are also used. Some programs may require a nominal lab fee, generally no more than $150 USD for the entire program.

We operate on a trimester schedule with no breaks. Each course is completed in four months. Students may commence their program of study at the beginning of any Start Date  (January 1, May 1, or September 1).

No Dissertation PhD Programs: In addition to our regular programs, we also offer the option to complete any of our programs with no dissertation–no thesis. Please inquire to Admissions if you may be interested and also review this posting:
