If you would like to conduct research with a specific faculty member, you can contact them directly before to set up an appointment. Our Academic Programs Catalog provides faculty lists with research areas of interest.

Ask about opportunities to meet with students.

Talk to the director of graduate studies about whether current students have been appointed to meet with visitors like you.

Workshop series for women in urban ag offers risk management education.

Joint effort of MU Extension and Annie's Project in St. Louis metro area to help producers start or expand urban ag businesses.

ST. LOUIS, Mo. – New and beginning women producers in urban agriculture have a new opportunity to learn about producing and marketing locally grown products. University of Missouri Extension and Annie’s Project will host a series, “Empowering Women in Urban Agriculture,” that offers insights into risk management, business planning and urban agriculture opportunities for those in metropolitan St. Louis.

Manita Ale, MU Extension agricultural business specialist and event organizer, notes that the series is designed to help both new and seasoned women in agriculture.

“This series’ curriculum provides attendees with information and resources that can be valuable whether they’re interested in starting or scaling up their urban agriculture enterprise,” said Ale. “The online sessions will help attendees understand best practices for five key areas of risk management, while farm walkabouts will help our attendees to see the application of these risk management strategies in action. We are also offering two in-person demonstrations on vermicompost and safe handling of tools.”

Topics will include farm safety and awareness, business planning and farm recordkeeping, farm stress, human health, urban agriculture grant opportunities and marketing best practices, she said.

“Over the course of this educational series, attendees will hear from a range of extension professionals, industry experts and fellow urban agriculture producers in St. Louis,” said Ale. “We want the women who complete this program to walk away feeling confident and equipped with tools they can implement in their own businesses.”

“Empowering Women in Urban Agriculture” will run Monday evenings from July 1 to Aug. 26. Online sessions will be hosted 6-8 p.m. via Zoom. In-person demonstrations will be hosted 6-8 p.m. at the MU Extension Urban East Regional Office , 8225 Florissant Road, St. Louis. The series concludes with farm walkabouts that run 5-7 p.m.

How does tuition work at WGU?

WGU's tuition is a flat rate that is charged every six months. You can take as many courses as you are able in that six-month term—with no extra cost. You simply pay for the term and do as much work as you can or want to during that time. This means that finishing faster helps you save money—a major benefit you won't find at most other schools. 

How do I communicate with my mentor?

You will be expected to maintain regular communication with your Program Mentor while enrolled at WGU. 

During a student's first term, the Program Mentor and student meet once each week by phone for a substantive discussion about engaging learning resources and assessments until the student achieves on-time progress (OTP).

After the first term, for students who meet and maintain on-time progress (OTP), the Program Mentor and student meet at least once every two weeks by phone for a substantive discussion about engaging learning resources and assessments.

For students on financial aid warning, probation, or termination, the Program Mentor and student meet at least once each week by phone for a substantive discussion about engaging learning resources and assessments until the student achieves OTP.

Is this program truly "at your own pace"?

WGU offers flexible pacing, meaning you can move through courses at a  pace that meets your learning style and knowledge level . Students can go as fast as they can but not as slowly. Students are required to complete a minimum number of competency units per term to meet on-time progress. However, if you choose to study at 3 am daily, that we can accommodate. 

How quickly can you finish the program?

Your personal progress will be determined by the extent of your transfer units, your time commitment, and your determination to proceed at a faster rate. Traditionally, without an associate’s degree or equivalent, it will take 2 to 2.5 years. Master's degree programs are designed to be completed within 2 years. However, we work on a  competency-based model,  which gives you credit for passing assessments and proving you can perform a task or understand a course of study proficiently. 

Can you skip ahead if you get done early?

Yes! If you are able to complete the minimum requirement before your term is over, you can add more courses, with no  tuition increase.

Is WGU accredited?

Yes! WGU is  institutionally accredited  by the Northwest Commission on Colleges and Universities (NWCCU), the highest form of accreditation.

How is an online college different than an on-campus college?

An accredited online college offers the same valuable and respected degrees that an on-campus college offers. The main difference is that online colleges offer you flexibility in your program. For example, you don't have to go to campus and sit in a classroom. You can move faster through courses. You are largely independent in your education. These are benefits that help many students pursue degrees who may not be able to attend an on-campus college.

How long does it take to complete an online degree?

It depends on the type of degree and online school you choose. Some online bachelor's degree programs will take 4+ years, and some online master's degrees will take 2+ years.

However, WGU is designed to help students accelerate their online degrees. Our unique education model allows students to move through courses as quickly as they can master the material. This means that, on average, students finish bachelor's degree programs in three years or less, and master's degree programs in 18 months or less.

What is the best online college?

We may be biased, but we believe WGU is truly the  best online college . Our unique education model, affordable tuition, and complete flexibility mean that students are truly in charge of their own education.

What can I do with an online degree?

An online degree helps you learn skills and earn credentials that will boost your résumé and prepare you for a meaningful career. Either a bachelor's or master's degree will be key in helping you be prepared for a new job, promotion, or salary increase. The specific jobs you can be qualified for with an online degree will depend on the specific degree you pursue.

Are online universities expensive?

Typically online universities are able to offer less expensive tuition compared to brick and mortar universities. This is often because there are less building maintenance requirements, staffing needs, living expenses for students, etc. At WGU for example, tuition for an undergraduate program is approximately $4,005 for a six-month term. This is much lower than most online and traditional degree programs.

Do all my existing credits transfer to WGU?

WGU has a  generous transfer policy . Our transcripts department can accept official copies of transcripts from your previous educational institutions for a course-by-course evaluation that compares the context of your courses to those in our programs, to tell you what is comparable and transferable.

What will be needed for admissions?

It depends on the program you are interested in pursuing. Some programs will have additional requirements however, the  general admissions process  is as follows: 

• Complete the enrollment application
• Contact Enrollment at 866-225-5948 to go over the program and admissions process specific to your desired degree program
• Submit official transcripts
• If desired, complete FAFSA form for financial aid

How soon can I start?

The enrollment process can take approximately 4-6 weeks. Start dates are the first of each month once enrollment has been completed.

Will another school or employer accept my WGU degree?

Every school sets its own guidelines however, accreditation plays a big part in recognition and acceptance. WGU is institutionally  accredited  by the Northwest Commission on Colleges and Universities (NWCCU), the highest form of accreditation. WGU graduates go on to continue their education at many colleges and universities. When WGU alumni self-report acceptance into graduate or doctorate programs,  we add the university to a list  so you can see where WGU graduates are continuing to pursue higher education.

James Floyd. This is the name of the gentleman sitting alone at a desk next to an elevator by the Emergency Department. This employee was the epitome of customer service. Called six different locations in the hospital to help me locate someone. His service was exemplary. Excellent service can make a difficult situation better.

I love my doctors but cannot STAND billing. I will get a bill for the visit and a separate bill for the doctor MONTHS after the visit and they don't even come at the same time so I think I have a bill paid and then another rolls in... It's ridiculous. My final straw was today. I got notice of a outstanding balance FROM OCTOBER in March. I had to wait due to an emergency to pay it until now (April) and when I went online to pay it was showing $0. I called to confirm and was told they sent it to collections. So it takes them FIVE MONTHS to even notify me of an outstanding balance but they send said balance to collections within a month of me being notified? I'm done with University Health billing processes. It's not your doctors that have me leaving, it's billing. I will be transferring all care elsewhere immediately.

Worst experience on seeing a patient being treated. I understand that i don't know the whole story but I was at the top floor waiting for an appointment and I look out the window and saw a women had fallen and tons of people were surrounding her doing nothing. 30min later EMS finally came but with no truck. They walked from the main campus to the surgery center with two guys and a stretcher. (Keep in mind i'm at UH1 not the main hospital.) This was shocking to see and everybody moved nonchalantly about it. Don't be a patient here!!

A women has fallen and all these nurses and doctors are just standing around.

I went to an appointment today with a friend at UH BH. The lady that interviewed my friend for services was Sharon Sanders. Omg what a wonderful young lady she was showing compassion, a willingness to help, and joy in doing her job. She made good eye contact and genuinely showed she cared. The service was not for me but I left encouraged for my friend and myself. If I ever need MH services now I know a great place to get help. People don't care how much we know until they Know how much we Care.

First off I had surgery on my kidney and probably should have rested the days I was in the hospital.however you put me into a room where a hard of hearing patient was.everytime I dosed off someone was in there screening so dozing off then someone screaming over and over again is irritating I was mad my care should have mattered I don't feel like it did. The second shift and third shift nurses did awesome was not thrilled with day shift when called hardly ever came thena lady would come in and not be able to help when they were sending me home they left the thing on my leg that held the cathader hose the ivthingin my hand never got taken out until I was in the wheelchair dressed coat on ready to go My care should have mattered I don't feel like it did

This is the worst hospital I have ever seen in my life, really very dirty and there are a lot of homeless people in the emergency.

1 bad Apple DOES spoil it for the whole bunch. Second floor SUZI AT the ccu nurses station is THE WORST!!!!!!!!!! After meeting other staff... its not them!!!! It's that bitch! I gave 3 stars because of the other staff. I want to give 1 star! My sister is on life support there. I called once I found out to ask for the status of my sister because my mom was not able to speak after she heard. SUZI answered the phone. I asked if I could have my sister status? Second floor SUZI said SHE'S NOT HERE AND DON'T CALL THIS NUMBER AGAIN! And hung up on me. How can you be a nurse and be that..... IGNORANT, UNPROFESSIONAL, HURTFUL, DISRESPECTFUL AND UNCARING! I say that because I cried all night! I called again the next day and was VERY kind because I needed to know my sisters status. I got the same shit! I don't know this CHIC... but she is in the WRONG PROFESSION. She should work at the DMV or better yet a PRISON!!! OR out in the wild away from humans.

I hate hospitals be half the time they dont do their jobs and are rude , they just tell you anything then send you on your way . I definitely could have stayed home bu my recent experience within a week ago was trash . The RN look like she just took a hit of meth I couldn't believe she was an RN because she seemed lost and over talkative about nothing. She made a comment about African Americans when trying to find their vein to take blood on the father ones I'm assuming . I can't quote exactly what she said but it was ignorant because a lot of us aren't dark and the dark ones like myself it has never been no issue finding a vein as she clearly seen that and that area is lighter like people are just old miserable envious & hateful. She probably couldn't bi I was older than her but that's that Melanin always popping. I couldn't believe she was younger than me when she told me her age. Finally the residency Doctor made his way to me just clueless , I get he had more rooms than he probably could handle but still don't just get one diagnosis and send a patient home clueless or getting another opinion. Weird Not to mention Covid swab test was done by the patient but someone will say oh yeah that's totally fine . Do better TMC

You need to contact the dental board of Missouri pr.mo.gov if you feel you have been mistreated by this office. They will continue to hurt more people if you don't. Making a complaint within this office won't help and there is no record of mistreatment. None. They could seriously hurt hundreds of people and no one would ever know. Contact the dental board. They take complaints that are years old even. It's a very big deal to the dentist if you do this. Making a complaint to the dentist or secretary will not help you at all... Pr.mo.gov

Is this a prison or a hospital? I could not be sure the way we were treated upon arrival. Be prepared for an intense search for weapons prior to entering. You will be separated from your loved one so make sure you have a way to communicate prior to arrival. You should plan a trip using a ride share app as you will not have any luck finding parking at the emergency room. Your entire experience here will be survival of the fittest. Good luck if you are unfortunate enough to have to bring someone you love here. Update: the doctors and nurses were wonderful and if I could rate them individually I'd give them 5-stars. Just the initial in-processing is a bad first impression.

The three-day conference will run Sept. 24-26. This year's theme is “Between the One and the Many: Considering Community and Individualism.”

The event is free and open to the public. Tickets are not required because the event was made possible by both the Missouri State Foundation and KY3.

“Through her powerful message, Brooke encourages audiences to celebrate their own unique paths and to find the courage to pursue their dreams at any age," said Brent Dunn, executive director of the foundation, in a Monday news release. "As a true icon and trailblazer, she proves that with determination and a positive outlook, anything is possible."

Shields is an actress, model, author and entrepreneur.

The child star and model became a start with two early movies, "Pretty Baby," which came out in 1978, and 1980's "The Blue Lagoon." In addition to other movies, she has appeared on numerous TV shows including "Murphy Brown," "Two and a Half Men," "Law & Order," "That '70s Show," "Friends" and "The Simpsons."

Her recent movie "Mother of the Bride," opposite Benjamin Bratt, was No. 1 on Netflix.

Shields has become known for empowering women of all ages and is preparing to release a book on aging and self-discovery, the release said.

The event is free but tickets to a special VIP reception with Shields, which starts at 5 p.m. Sept. 24, will cost $150 and include:

• A photo opportunity with Shields.
• An autographed copy of “There Was a Little Girl: The Real Story of my Mother and Me”.
• Cocktails, beverages and hors d’oeuvres.
• Special reserved seating at the keynote address.
