(EDITOR’S NOTE: The following story was contributed by UNMC employee relations.)
UNMC employees who wish to get their bachelor’s degrees are encouraged to visit with an adviser from the University of Nebraska at Omaha (UNO) who will be on campus on Friday, June 19.
The adviser will help employees take advantage of the University of Nebraska scholarship program and start or finish their degrees.
The adviser can help employees pursue bachelor’s of science, bachelor’s of arts or bachelor’s of general studies (BGS) degrees.
The BGS degree is a fully accredited 125 hour undergraduate degree program for students 21 and older.
With a BGS degree, employees can either choose to focus on one of more than 40 areas of concentration ranging from health care administration to theatre, or concentrate on three areas of emphasis.
The BGS program also gives students the opportunity to complete their degree online. Another advantage to this program is that all credits previously earned at an accredited institution will count towards a degree.
Contact Margaret Boyce at 559-4371 to set up your advising appointment today.
Appointments will last 45 minutes and be held in the Administrative Center, Room 2032.
If you have previously earned college credits, please bring a copy of your transcripts to the appointment so they can be evaluated for transfer.
