Two graduate programs at Buffalo State—a master of science in adult education and a master in music education—are among those included in the Open SUNY+ partnership announced by SUNY Chancellor Nancy Zimpher in October. Both programs are offered completely online, one of several criteria that must be met for programs to be among Open SUNY+ programs.
While all online SUNY programs are part of Open SUNY, Open SUNY+ partner programs include a set of seven signature elements, which are based on national standards for ensuring quality and success in online learning. Those elements include personalized student services, engaging learning experiences, comprehensive faculty support, a robust technology environment, institutional commitment to quality assurance, assessment of program effectiveness, and strategic commitment to growth.
