Concordia University opens Dearborn learning center

Concordia University Ann Arbor is taking a catered style of college learning to Dearborn, addressing a demand by non-traditional students looking to earn a degree in less time.

Concordia's new accelerated learning center in Dearborn opens this month; a Frankenmuth center opened in December. The Wisconsin-based, Lutheran-centered university is responding to existing and prospective students who want to earn a degree in less time but in more intense sessions (say longer classes and shorter semesters) in order to accommodate jobs or families that already occupy much of their time.

The center, which is currently located at the Great Lakes Members Credit Union building, 22720 Michigan Ave., will offer undergraduate courses in business, hospitality management, management of criminal justice and nursing, as well as a Master of Science program in organizational leadership and administration.
