| General Information |
Engineering Online courses are designed for learners who might be working full time, taking courses on a part-time basis, or who are unable to physically attend classes at North Carolina State University. However, the courses are not self-paced and follow the same academic semester schedule as on-campus courses. Engineering Online courses also require a high level of interaction with the instructor and coursemates. If you still have questions about this format, please contact us or visit the ”Getting Started" section of the Distance Education website!

| Standards |
Because distance education courses are the full equivalent of on-campus courses, students are expected to meet the same standards of academic achievement and are governed by the same policies and procedures that apply to on-campus instruction.
|
Off-campus Interactions |
The success of your distance education course is closely tied to the quality of communication between you and the instructor. You are encouraged to communicate directly with your instructor frequently.
|
Student Services |
Each student is assigned a Unity account shortly after registration, which allows access to the University’s databases, library services, and e-mail. Since most distance learning coursees have an Internet component, it is recommended that all students have access to a computer, an activated e-mail account, and an internet service provider.
