About Our Staff
Academic Programs

Academic Programs is part of Continuing Education at the University of Utah. Our mission is to provide learning opportunities for University students close to home in their own local communities. We offer a variety of for-credit courses and degree programs at the University's off-campus sites in Sandy.

At Academic Programs we are committed to providing a quality learning experience for our students. If you have ideas for new course offerings or concerns about a class you are currently attending, we would like to hear from you.
