New England College Expands Offerings With Criminal Justice, Psychology and Healthcare Administration Degrees 100% Online

TAMPA, Fla., Dec. 28, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- With specific industries experiencing a spike in job growth and competition increasing among applicants, New England College (NEC) is adding three in-demand degrees to its online programs: BA in Criminal Justice, BA in Psychology and BS in Healthcare Administration. Each program is designed to give prospective students new skills and an educational edge, all through the convenience of 100% online learning. Enrollment begins December 13 for each online undergraduate degree program.

Higher Education for Enduring Careers
Students enrolling in one of NEC's new degree programs online will be poised to take advantage of burgeoning opportunities. Unlike some of today's trendier career alternatives, each field is certain to remain in demand due to the inherent needs of people, organizations and communities.

    --  Criminal Justice: Our nation's streets and communities will always need
        protection and the legal system will always need to be upheld or
        challenged, providing job security to professionals in law enforcement,
        corrections, social services, the justice system and law.
    --  Psychology: From case managers and community service managers to
        rehabilitation specialists and psychiatric technicians, the need for
        psychological services in schools, hospitals, substance abuse treatment
        centers and social services agencies is expected to fuel demand for
        years to come.
    --  Healthcare Administration: Caregivers will be needing responsible
        leaders to help in healthcare management for specific departments or
        entire facilities, as an aging population that remains active much later
        in life creates faster than average job growth.

A Distinctive Approach to Education
Prospective students in any NEC undergraduate degree online program can expect the same quality education and personalized attention they'd receive on campus. In addition, regionally accredited New England College offers competitive tuition and seven-week classes which allow students to complete their bachelor's degree in as few as 28 months. "New England College takes a distinctive approach to enrollment, considering each individual's unique accomplishments and personal goals," says Mark Watman, VP of Academic Affairs. "Our focus is on providing our students with a relevant education that's centered on a sense of personal and professional transformation. A New England College education makes a difference. Now, through our online programming, we're proud to be able to bring our unique approach to individuals across the nation."
