Who has time to go to class anymore? Especially if you have a full-time job and a family. Maybe you want to get a Master's degree but can't take time off during business hours to attend class or don't live close to a major university. Luckily for you, Columbia University offers a wide range of online graduate degrees in engineering through the Columbia Video Network (CVN), which posts video recorded lectures online within hours of the lecture presented on the Columbia University campus. According to the Columbia website,

"CVN students take the same classes, have the same homework assignments, and take the same exams as their on-campus counterparts. The only difference is in location. CVN students can earn the same degree as on-campus students: a Master of Science (MS) or Professional Degree (PD) from Columbia University's School of Engineering and Applied Science."
