Integrative Professional Studies: Addressing the needs of the adult learner

Integrative Professional Studies is a program developed by the SUNY Oswego faculty to serve our adult learners who may have discontinued their education with mere credits left needed to graduate. This major is offered both online and on-campus for students and current staff looking to obtain their bachelors. Its primary goal is to allow flexibility with course transferability, and ensures applicable courses focused on the future of work for the students looking to reach their goals of earning their bachelors degree. 

Presenter:  Karen Archibee, Academic Planning Coordinator, Division of Extended Learning, SUNY Oswego

Since starting at SUNY Oswego in 2012, I have focused on traditional student admission and retention in Enrollment Management, and am proud to now bring my experience to the Division of Extended Learning where I can utilize my experience and knowledge to assist students seeking to complete their degrees. I truly believe in the power of education and am thrilled to be able to assist students that are interested in pursuing Microcredentials and/or the Integrative Professional Studies program.

I attended Florida Southern College for my bachelor's degree (completed in 2007) with a degree in Psychology and then earned a Masters Degree in Higher Education and Student Affairs Administration at SUNY Buffalo in 2012. 

When not at work, I love to spend time with my partner, two children and our furbabies. I love to read, travel, and cook.
