Campus-based degree seeking programs will offer classes predominantly in-person. Online degree programs, such as the Online MBA or MBA Direct, will conduct classes primarily remote. Our Executive Education short course and custom programs blend online and in-person classes.

Students that wish to take advantage of the flexible modality will have an option to enroll in online or on-campus courses during the open enrollment period.

What sets SMU Cox Edge apart?

SMU Cox is committed to excellence. Virtual students complete the same trusted and respected SMU Cox curriculum online as their on-campus peers. Unlike some virtual programs, SMU Cox has the infrastructure needed to offer an enriched virtual modality that doesn’t sacrifice its welcoming and inclusive nature.

In-person students enjoy the energy and personal interactions that come with being on campus. They can expect to network in person with peers, faculty, and the business community.

  • Multi-modal, high production quality course development
  • Investing in in-classroom technology for a more seamless and engaging virtual experience
  • 3+ years of experience providing adaptive learning for in-person and distance learning
  • Credit, and non-credit bearing courses offered in-person and online
Small class sizes for virtual and in-person classes maintain quality and integrity of the experience. Each program structures its curriculum to meet the needs of its students.
