All Jones International University courses are delivered entirely via the Internet, allowing students to earn the degree they need to advance their careers without putting the rest of their lives on hold. Everything needed to earn a degree or just take a course is online and accessible 24 hours a day, seven days a week. Students log on and learn wherever and whenever it is convenient for them. All that is needed is a computer, access to the Internet, and any standard web browser.

Glenn R. Jones, chancellor of Jones International University, has devoted much of his life to his passionately held belief that education should be available to everyone, everywhere. The Jones companies have been working to further that goal since 1987, with the launch of Mind Extension University™ (ME/U™ ), a cable television network that enabled 30,000 students to take courses from over 30 colleges and universities via television.

In 1993, Mr. Jones founded JIU, the first university to exist entirely online. And, in 1999, JIU became the first fully online university to be accredited by the Higher Learning Commission, a member of the North Central Association.

Hallmarks of a JIU Education

• Flexibility: Everything you need to earn a degree is online and accessible 24 hours a day, seven days a week. All you need is a computer, access to the Internet, any standard web browser, and a desire to learn.
• Quality: JIU's regional accreditation ensures that students receive an outstanding education and credits that are transferable to other accredited institutions.
• Relevance: Adults learn best when what they study can be applied to what they do. Our students can take what they learn in the classroom and put it to use on their jobs immediately.
• Faculty: JIU students learn from a world-class faculty from leading U.S. and international universities. Content experts from such prestigious institutions as the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, UCLA, and Carnegie Mellon University develop all of JIU's courses specifically for the Internet.

What's it like to be a JIU student?

It's much like being in a traditional classroom, but in many respects more intimate. Many JIU graduates have said they felt closer to their classmates and teachers at JIU than they did in a classroom setting.

Through a blend of assigned readings, class discussion, faculty feedback, group projects, case studies, research, and writing assignments, you will be in continuous communication with your peers and faculty. And, with classes limited to 25 students, teachers get to know their students, and students get to know their teachers and each other.
