Get Ahead by Earning an Online Degree, See What Walden University Can Offer

Florida Gov. Rick Scott has rattled some anthropologists' cages recently by stating he wants to see people pursuing degrees in technology and science rather than anthropology degrees. Not everyone has the time to attend a traditional college so thankfully there are programs such as Walden University's online degree programs to fit the needs of working professionals. They're supporting my travel habit in exchange for me to check them out.

Walden University (find them at WaldenU.edu) offers a host of online degree programs including Bachelor's, Master's and Doctoral degrees in a range of disciplines including psychology, information technology and health studies. Online courses allow some flexibility yet keeps you on pace with studies.

Hey, STEM is where the future is (science, technology, engineering and mathematics) and exciting things are happening in those fields yet it takes a college degree for most people to get ahead these days (I'm saying most because there are exceptions, such as Steve Jobs and Mark Zuckerberg who dropped out of college.)

President Bill Clinton spoke to Walden graduates during the school’s commencement on July 30, 2011. More than 4,700 students graduated from 39 countries (including from Afghanistan, Australia, Saudi Arabia and Serbia) that day and President Clinton encouraged them to pursue positive change as they began a new career chapter.
