Commencement ceremonies

Capella University holds commencement exercises twice every year; one is held every August in Minneapolis, while the other is held in another major city in either February or March. A live and archived webcast of the graduation ceremony is provided, so that those who couldn't attend are able to see you graduate.

Time and place doesn't matter because wherever you have an Internet connection, you can gain access to the Capella online course room. Decide on the best time and place for you. Every week you take part in class discussions, post your work, and review feedback from faculty and fellow students. You can do a lot of the course work offline.

What is your approach to web-based learning?

  • Conduct an orientation that helps beginning students to quickly find their way around.
  • Don't let technology prevent you from learning.
  • Design a curriculum flexible enough to meet students' varying levels of technical skills.

Go to your online classroom for all of your assignments. The syllabus clearly states what activities should be carried out each week. To assist you with organization and planning, all requirements, deadlines, and evaluation standards are viewable.

Several factors affect the amount of time that it will take for you to earn your degree:

  • The program you have chosen
  • The amount of credit from another college or university that is transferable to your Capella course.
  • Any credits that you are able to earn by proving previous learning experiences outside of the classroom.
  • The number of classes you take each quarter.

A Bachelor of Science in Public Safety (Homeland Security Specialization)

The issues related to the safety of the citizens, land and property of your country, and homeland security generally are the areas in this field and this is a program that prepares you for a career in this field. Students will concentrate on managing public security and federal resources. Some of the areas covered by the coursework include: terrorism, both international and domestic; diplomacy; technical and intelligence skills; and coordination across multiple jurisdictions. You can apply your new leadership skills and show that you are competent in the homeland security field with a capstone project. This specialization is selected by people frequently owing to the fact that they look for further career prospects or gaining expertise in areas such as law enforcement agencies, or local security, state, and federal organizations. Some people also choose to specialize in homeland security to help them move from a military experience into a non-military security role. Getting to be an employee in the the National Security Agency or someplace in the U.S. Government provides opportunities for an exciting career and job security.

The Department of Homeland Security itself named Capella University a National Center of Academic Excellence in Information Assurance Education (CAEIAE).

The total program consists of 180 quarter credits.
