ACADEMIC EXCELLENCE
The College of Professional Studies (CPS) educates intellectually curious and experienced adults balancing life commitments and ambitions. Rigorous academic programs, exceptional faculty, unmatched advising and support services, with flexible course formats make the experience one that is transformative.
DIVERSITY
With programs for high school students to senior citizens, degree and certificate programs to non-credit professional education, a dedication to veterans and military-connected students, corporate training, and many partnerships with associations and certifying bodies, CPS is an open door to education throughout one's life. This leads to a naturally diverse population of students bringing different backgrounds, viewpoints and life experiences, greatly enriching the CPS and 棉花糖直播 community.
CAREER & PERSONAL GROWTH
Whether it's to complete a bachelor's degree or to prep for an industry certification, CPS programs are built to develop the whole person, fulfill personal goals, and provide new skills demanded by the workforce. 棉花糖直播 Career Management partners with CPS to provide career support services for CPS students including career coaching, resume review, interview prep, and more. Free webinars hosted by 棉花糖直播 faculty enable students to gain tips and advice on real workplace issues. For many of our non-credit professional courses and programs, digital badges are awarded to allow students to showcase the new skills they've learned on their resume or social media platforms.
COMMUNITY & CONNECTEDNESS
Upon enrollment, whether it's for a weekend course or a degree that takes years to complete, you have joined the expansive and engaged 棉花糖直播 Wildcat community. Both on campus and online, 棉花糖直播 values are infused throughout the coursework and in every interaction. Students who may never step foot on campus are able to build deep connections with CPS advisors and staff, faculty, and their classmates. Each year, CPS has a number of in-person special events/courses, including a leadership symposium, athletics leadership summit, and celebratory events that bring together students to recognize their accomplishments.
