www.student.worldcampus.psu.edu Penn State World Campus or "Penn State Online" is the online campus of The Pennsylvania State University. Launched in 1998, the World Campus grew out of the University's long and distinguished history in distance education that began in 1892. The mission of the World Campus is to extend Penn State's undergraduate and graduate degree and certificate programs to learners who cannot attend another Penn State campus because of geography or life factors. The World Campus currently offers more than 120 online undergraduate and graduate degree and certificate programs in partnership with Penn State academic units, with additional programs being added to the curriculum on a continuing basis.[1][2] World Campus offices and a major part of its technical infrastructure are located in the Outreach Building at Innovation Park on the University Park Campus.

More than one hundred years later, in 1998, the University reaffirmed its commitment to providing accessible learning to all who need it with the launching of its World Campus.
The World Campus uses multiple technologies to make some of Penn State's most highly regarded graduate, undergraduate, and continuing professional education programs available anytime, anywhere through the world wide web, computer interfacing, and other media.

Academic Integrity[edit] Some World Campus courses require students to take proctored exams at locally approved educational institutes. Additionally, some courses require assignments to be completed in a live setting on webcam to ensure that the actual student is completing the assigned work. For instance, foreign language courses require video recordings of students conversing among their classmates in a live video conference in order to earn credit for oral exams. Such measures help maintain the academic integrity of the university's online courses.
