I will be done before these changes are fully implemented, but the degree programs that were just listed and the forthcoming CS degree program really help round out the offerings.
You will be able to get a YourPace degree in most of the the core business disciplines (excluding finance), which is great. The CS degree program brings with it calculus, 2 semesters of statistics, and another math class (linear algebra, I think). Assuming these are available to other YourPace students, that is great. I was, admittedly, wrong about Cost Accounting.
Hopefully they debut some more minors with the competencies they are already offering.
I am really hopeful that the expansions are indicative of YourPace doing well and being something that has a long future ahead of it!

I would like an Agricultural Science graduate program, or similar. I'd also seriously consider an AS undergraduate program. Mostly if I could do an independent project out in my yard or a research project from home.
Also interested in Community Health Education, especially at the undergrad level. I think they already have some CHE classes (and maybe a minor?)
If they offer either, there's a very good chance I would enroll.
I'm interested in some Psychology graduate programs too.

I'd love to see some undergraduate certificate programs offered at UMPI, especially business, accounting and IT related certificates. Also more Masters degrees. An MBA and some business specific Masters like Management Information Systems, HR, Accounting, Project Management etc would be awesome.

I would like certificates too, but personally I'm not interested in business-related or IT-related certs.

Everyone has the MBAs online, they don't have the more specific business Masters degrees. I can't find a Management Information Systems masters degree that's both CBE and online. I'm an ERP specialist and it would be really good for my resume and future employability.

I would think it would be fairly easy to find a graduate cert in this for a decent price (prob not CBE). I don't think it's enough of a reason to create an entire MBA program for it though.

OK, so you want degrees to be both really rare, and very popular. Yes, I'm really bad at researching online, I'm sure it exists, I'm just too dumb and/or lazy to find it.
My bad, I thought someone had asked our opinions about UMPI, I'll keep quiet in future.

I really don't want to take an MBA, that's why I'd like a specific masters in this speciality. I haven't managed to find any decently priced graduate certificates, but I'll keep an eye out.

There are numerous master's degrees in IT. A master's in Management Information Systems is focused on that specific area of IT. There aren't tons of schools offering this degree online especially CBE programs. There aren't many schools who offer CBE programs. WGU, Brandman/UMass Global, and UMPI seem to have the largest offerings. There are a handful of schools which offer a single CBE degree and a few with a handful of programs like Purdue Global. Capella has a few but they have a lot of well known issues and folks are advised to stay away from them. Walden offers some, but they're not available in all states. Turns out every college is not licensed to offer their online programs in all 50 states. They have to be licensed in each state. Doesn't matter if they're RA or NA either. It's a state licensing issue. NY and RI seem to be the most problematic states.

Bellevue has a master's degree. I don't know if it's in your budget. It's not CBE.
