Focus On
To Serve and Protect...


Female police officerMany degrees in the social science category on eLearners are all about service to your community and protecting others.

Homeland security, public safety, and criminal justice are about protecting life, preventing crime, enforcing laws, and upholding citizens' rights.

Public administration is more about running governments without necessarily being elected. Public administrators administer federal, state, county, town governments by planning, budgeting, finance, policy, engineering, and organization.

Are any of these social science degrees right for you?

Focus On
Being a Healthy E-Learner


Guy wearing a bandanaWe know how hard it seems to stay healthy during these winter months, especially with the constant changes in temperature. But there are many things you can do to ramp up that immune system and remain a healthy distance learner.

  • Wash your hands regularly, and keep your fingers away from your eyes, mouth, nose, etc!
  • Consider taking a multivitamin or vitamin D supplements if you're in a cold climate. Of course, consult your doctor beforehand.
  • Don't skimp on sleep — your body relies on it! Getting adequate amounts of sleep supports your immune system.
  • Go offline every now and again! Giving your brain a rest while you're awake is also important.

Read How to Be a Healthy E-Learner for 10 more stay-healthy tips.
