The Accelerated Graduate Programs at South University are structured for students with busy lives that might be changing careers, starting a new career or advancing their position within an existing career. The accelerated, 12-month programs are built for motivated individuals who believe that education doesn t have to stop when their life or career starts, and students should have opportunities to seek the level of education that can support their personal goals. The 12-month graduate programs are intensive, with an entire graduate education presented in a compressed time frame, so students should consider the discipline necessary to meet program requirements. However individuals able to meet deadlines in their everyday life and career should be able to meet the demands of the 12-month curriculum structure. The program format is built to provide students with both faculty interaction through smart classrooms and industry-utilized video conferencing technology and the convenience of online learning. Accelerated Graduate Program faculty are selected based on their industry experience and educational background. For example, supply chain management may be taught by faculty that built supply chain systems for major multinational corporations, strategy may come from an international leader in CRM, customer relationship management and analysis may come from industry leaders in data mining and decision making. 3
