Community Development Online Master's Degree Program
The Community Development Online Master's Degree program is one of the fastest growing programs with fifty-four students.
The program involves five participating universities: Iowa State University, Kansas State University, North Dakota State University, South Dakota State University, and the University of Nebraska-Lincoln, and it is a program of the Great Plains Interactive Distance Education Alliance (IDEA).
Students in the program take a series of required core courses and choose electives from three specialization tracks; six hours are dedicated to the students’ capstone experience. The specialization tracks include Building Economic Capacity, Natural Resource Management, Working with Native Communities and Non-Profit Management.
This cutting edge, trans-disciplinary, inter-institutional program has been a major success since it started. To find out more information about the online community development master’s degree program, please visit: Community Development Information.

2+2 Elementary Education (BA)
If you’re thinking about changing jobs or careers, you can make a change AND stay in your home community. The UNI 2+2 program is for students who have completed a community college associates degree but have family priorities or fixed job schedules. 2+2 students take classes at their local community college and the equivalent of two years of UNI courses taught by UNI faculty at the community college campus, online, or via the ICNetwork which is a set of statewide interactive classrooms. 2+2 students earn a UNI bachelors degree. UNI partners with community colleges across Iowa to help educate students where they live.
If this describes you, click here for more information. Or, let UNI know you are interested in 2+2 using this link to the UNI Admissions Office. This step will allow us to send you more information about 2+2.
