(EDITOR’S NOTE: The following is a note from UNMC Employee Relations.)
For those employees who wish to get their bachelor’s degrees — now may be the time take advantage of the University of Nebraska scholarship program.
On Wednesday, May 13, an adviser from the University of Nebraska at Omaha will be available at UNMC to meet with anyone interested in starting or finishing 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 over 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. Click here to find out more information about pursuing a BGS degree.
Contact Margaret Boyce at 559-4371 to set up your advising appointment today. Appointments will last a half hour 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.
