An interdisciplinary program that integrates information technology, instructional design and learning sciences, MIST responds to the increasing demand for professionals who understand learning theory, instructional design and technology, interactive media design and development, assessment and research. Whether a corporate trainer, classroom educator or a person developing coursework for those professionals, the MIST program creates rich learning experiences to empower professionals to make a difference for those they serve. The MIST program has two tracks: MIST Blended and MIST Fully Online. MIST Blended is a state supported degree program that requires students to be on-campus for a weekend at the begining of each term, and the rest of the intruction will happen online. MIST Fully Online is a self-supported online program through Extended Education that does not require on-campus meeting.
MIST Fully Online courses are offered via CalStateOnline (www.CalStateOnline.com). These courses have a different fee structure and academic calendar. Please contact the school of ITCD for details and see Extended-Ed page for more information.
