PALOS HILLS, IL — Moraine Valley Community College is offering a range of courses and formats for the fall 2022 semester, but is bringing back more in-person classes that had gone virtual during the pandemic. Other formats include online and hybrid, which is a combination of online and face-to-face instruction. Classes start Aug. 22 and later.

“Our students have told us they want to be back on campus, sitting with their peers in front of an instructor in a classroom. We want to accommodate those students who prefer that learning format, so we are offering more in-person classes this fall,” said Dr. Pamela Haney, vice president of academic affairs for Moraine Valley . “Of course, we understand some students prefer to learn from home, so we will continue to offer hybrid and online courses, too.”

Moraine Valley offers more than 130 degree and certificate programs. Students interested in transferring to four-year colleges or universities can earn associate degrees in arts, fine arts, general studies, engineering science, applied science or science. Students can also choose from several career programs, including allied health and nursing, business and computer sciences, industrial technology and public service. The college offers noncredit programs and courses as well.
