Villanova Engineering’s doctoral program is one of the few in the country that can be pursued part time with many courses available online. It is also distinctive in its professional development program, which reflects Villanova’s commitment to our students’ holistic development.
Flexible Options
Classes are conveniently held in the evenings to allow you to successfully balance work and family while earning your degree. You can participate in class on campus, in real-time (synchronously) via our E-Learning program, or on your own schedule through recorded materials and lectures. Our graduate programs are unique in that you can combine online and on campus options, attending class or participating remotely depending upon your availability and preference. You can also complete your engineering graduate degree entirely online.
THE VILLANOVA DIFFERENCE
Small classes and personal attention are the hallmark of a Villanova education. Our students can count on a strong support network of faculty and peers.
Faculty research provides hands-on opportunities for full-time students and insight into the latest technological advancements for working professionals.
Access to recorded online materials benefits all students, whether taking classes entirely online, on campus or a combination of both options.
One graduate says..
“I have not physically been to Villanova since starting the program 3 years ago. Without distance learning I would never have achieved my degree. The convenience of watching the classes if I had a conflict with work or family made Villanova the ideal choice for me.”
