Online Mortuary Science Program

The Wayne State University Mort Sci Online Program offers a Bachelor of Science in Mortuary Science degree that meets the educational requirements for licensure in every state. Get the education you want and the credentials you need with the freedom to choose your own schedule – at WSU's affordable in-state tuition rate.

The admission requirements and application process are the same for both the online and in-person degree programs.

Online program benefits

Flexible schedule

Access your classes when you want and from where you want. Life is busy, and online courses allow you the flexibility to complete the program still balancing work and family life. Take all of your classes online or have a hybrid schedule of online and traditional classes.
In-State Tuition

Out-of-state students who enroll in the fully-online program pay in-state tuition regardless of their state of residence.
A regionally accredited bachelor's degree

Do you want to practice in a state that requires a bachelor's degree or will soon require one? Do you want the ability to transfer your mortuary science credits toward a graduate or other degree? WSU is accredited by the Higher Learning Commission and credits earned in the Mortuary Science Program are fully transferable.
Faculty and peer interaction

Taking an online course doesn't mean you have to sacrifice the ability to interact and collaborate with your instructors and fellow students. Through virtual office hours, video conferencing, discussion boards and more, you will have access to an academic community built on experience and innovation.
