UA to Launch First-of-Its-Kind Online Science Academy

by David Miller, U Arizona

Set to launch in the spring, the UA Online Science Academy will enable students to take STEM courses. After months of planning, the University of Arizona is set to launch the UA Online Science Academy. The new initiative will allow students to take science courses — such as chemistry, biology, space and atmospheric sciences, environmental sciences, and physiology — without the need to be physically present on campus. The academy comes at a critical juncture for the UA, as the institution continues its mission to increase access to higher education on a global scale. The initiative also represents a huge leap forward for the online academic world, as sciences — especially lab sciences — long have been considered a missing puzzle piece for online learners.
