I thought that this was a rather interesting unusual degree. http://packaging.msu.edu/online_learning.php Any others? (even if they aren't distance learning I would be interested in seeing it)
Birkbeck offers an MA in Garden History, which has always amused me (though for no good reason, I suppose). Not DL. http://www.bbk.ac.uk/study/pg/gardenhistory/gardma.html It seems such an English thing. Reminds me of the souties back home.
Michigan State? Doesn't someone around here have a PhD from MSU? Maybe he's helping out his buddy Douglas. This would be a good one for him after Union goes out of business and his "PhD" is banned in Oregon. I understand he could use more than a little enhancement in the package department.
That is down right strange. I could see myself going for a career in packaging but Garden History just sounds strange. I mean if I wanted to do a degree for pure fun it would be in almost anything else before Garden History.
I'm sure that the degrees cover packaging design rather than the mundane job of loading packages. I work for a computer company and engineers design the packages and then the packages must go through extensive testing. They have to balance package cost against protection of the contents against effort to load/build the package against unloading/dismantling the package.
