Here's a subject I've never seen taught online before: nuclear engineering. A consortium of twelve universities is now offering online nuclear engineering classes to interested students. Here's a blurb from the program website:

"Are you an undergraduate student at a Big 12 university? Do you think having a basic understanding of nuclear science will make you more attractive to future employers? Would you like to graduate with some nuclear science coursework on your transcript? If so, the Big 12 Nuclear Engineering Consortium was created for you!

In response to the increasing employer demand for employees with some nuclear training, the Big 12 Consortium offers students access to nuclear engineering courses. The courses are delivered via the Internet by the Big 12 universities that have nuclear engineering programs."

Participating schools include Kansas State, the Universities of Missouri at Columbia, Texas at Austin, and Texas A&M University at College Station.
