Mission
With learners as our focus, the mission of the Graduate & Online School is to facilitate and provide educational outreach opportunities to our community and the diverse learner groups of Southern Utah University. Our professional focus includes academic excellence, experiential engagement of learners, and technology.
The Graduate & Online School facilitates and advocates for traditional and nontraditional educational opportunities for all types of students. It works closely with the University’s academic departments and colleges. Options for lifelong learning are presented year round. Continuing Studies programs meet the needs of nontraditional students through convenient course scheduling, curricular flexibility, innovative teaching, cutting edge technology, and university courses in high schools.
The School recognizes that most of its students/clients have work, family, and other personal and professional responsibilities which limit their participation in traditional college activities; therefore, convenience is a major factor in the design of Continuing & Professional Studies programs and advocacy.

The Bachelor of either Arts or Science in General Studies is a flexible, customized program in which the student, in collaboration with and under the guidance of experts in the field of interest, undertakes the responsibility for the design of an undergraduate degree with an emphasis in a selected area of study that reflects the student’s particular personal and professional interests. The program is intended for independent-minded, self-directed adult learners, who have, at minimum, earned 60 college credits from a regionally accredited college or university, along with other requirements.
