WOU in Salem

In 2019-20, WOU will begin offering the Master of Arts in Organizational Leadership and the Applied Baccalaureate in Liberal Studies at our learning center in Salem.  With a path through General Education and selected upper division courses offered at WOU:Salem, and our expanding array of online course offerings, a WOU degree is more accessible than ever to working adults who need flexible courses and programs that are offered when and where they need them.

WOU:Salem’s hybrid courses meet on Tuesday, Wednesday or Thursday evenings in the Willamette Education Service District’s Professional Learning Center at 2611 Pringle Road SE in Salem.
