Online Learning<br />

Online Learning at KSI offers a unique approach. Our expertise as a leading provider of<br />

advanced computer science education has allowed us to develop a flexible and robust<br />

approach to course content and student-faculty interaction through various online platforms<br />

and media. In addition, we continue to offer traditional interaction by phone and email to<br />

provide students with the ultimate flexibility to determine their own style of learning.<br />

Here are some KSI advantages:<br />

• Fully accredited online MS Degree program<br />

• Faculty-authored courseware with multi-media content<br />

• PhD faculty providing personal attention through chat, email and phone<br />

• Full on-campus facilities for students wanting a hybrid approach<br />

• Technical support offered online, by phone or in person according to student needs<br />

• An online chat forum developed in house with increased capabililty to communicate with<br />

teachers and other students<br />

• Other tools such as discussion thread forum, faculty blogs, video conferencing and shared<br />

video as needed<br />

Online Learning<br />

The online content and presentation of KSI programs and courses are substantially the same as<br />

the program that is offered on the premises of the facility. Our online program includes lessons<br />

presented by KSI faculty, and employs the methods of multimedia, online learning education:<br />

online video, PowerPoint presentations, flash graphics, pdf documents, programming code<br />

examples, and relevant resource hyperlinks. Archived online discussions are also available. KSI<br />

faculty remain available via e-mail and, during normal business hours, via telephone.<br />
