Lookiing for a DL course in Oceanography

Hello..........to all.

I need some assistance please.

I am a student finishing up over at Excelsior College, and I had decided to sub a course.

The course I want to now take (or find) is a course in OCEANOGRAPHY, in order to finish up my degree program.

In their DL database.....I could not find anything...directly however.

The unique situation is that I am very heavy in Geography & Meteorology courses.
Which sometimes "oceanography" can be classified under - depending on the university and department.

However, "oceanography" is technically / usually classified in GEOLOGY.

Can anyone suggest any DL colleges/universities which I can take a course in this subject via correspondance, which will not cost me an arm and a leg.

Thanks
Jay

 

In the 'arm or a leg' department:

Oceanography C101 at the University of Washington.

 

Telecampus lists some courses (type oceanography in search box on right-hand side).

 

Go to http://www.cvc.edu/catalog/course_browses.asp?how=refine&sub=34&sort=Title&page=1&pagesize=10 and type in oceanography
A couple of courses are via internet and proxctored exams.

 

Indiana University Independent Study offers an Oceanography course both online and though traditional Independent Study.

The Open University in the UK offers an Oceanography course. May or may not be of interest, I dont know the costs and study implications for OU study in the US

The University of Northern Colorado lists Oceanography 110-053 as an Earth Science course at their Independent Study web-site.
