Academics
Miami Regionals consolidated its Commerce Department at the VOA Learning Center in the fall of 2019. With the largest enrollment on the Regionals, the department continues to offer in-class courses at all Regional locations, provides online course offerings, and offers students the opportunity to complete their degree 100% online. The Regionals also provide other undergraduate course opportunities here to help students begin their degree programs.
Miami’s Farmer School of Business’s nationally-ranked MBA Program is based at the Voice of America Learning Center. Through Miami’s College of Education, Health and Society there are a number of graduate degree and professional development opportunities offered throughout the year, and eligible area educators may be able to take advantage of Miami's TEAM Scholarship.
Commerce Hub
Miami University’s Commerce Hub is located at the Learning Center. Begun in fall 2019, the Hub links the real-world and academic expertise of Commerce Faculty with a new partnership with the Ohio Small Business Development Center and the work it does helping small businesses launch and expand. In addition to service businesses in the region, the Hub will also dynamically connect Commerce students with practical learning experiences in working with SBDC clients and programs.
