Earn a world-class Johns Hopkins education online.
Johns Hopkins’ Advanced Academic Programs (AAP) offer flexible online and on-campus options with the advantage of the world-class instruction and high-level interaction that are the foundation of Johns Hopkins’ tradition of excellence. AAP’s goal is to offer new, innovative academic programs that meet the needs of today’s working professional.
The Part-Time Advantage for Working Professionals:
- Flexibility - Students don’t commute to a physical classroom with AAP’s online programs. Instead, they work inside a course management system to complete assignments and interact with faculty and classmates. There are due dates for course work, but students can log in at their convenience.
- Excellent Faculty - All AAP courses are taught by highly-accomplished faculty, known for the scholarship and practice of their disciplines. Online courses allow AAP to expand the faculty pool beyond the DC/Baltimore area, offering students the chance to work with excellent faculty from all over the world.
- High Levels of Interaction - Online students communicate with their faculty and classmates through discussion boards, group assignments, and the occasional live online event. The online environment allows students to learn as much from their classmates as they do from their faculty and assignments.
