Type: Extension Statewide Program

An extension program is a department within a college that offers classes to local residents interested in learning new skills or information. Extension programs were designed to educate entire communities. Individuals who enroll in this kind of program take classes purely to advance their knowledge in a subject. These engagements are strictly held and taught by MU Extension faculty/staff.
