Additional Programs

The School of Continuing & Professional Studies (CAPS) offers the following additional undergraduate programs:

CAPS also administers the Washington University Prison Education Project (PEP). The Washington University Prison Education Project offers credit-bearing college courses and degrees to incarcerated students at two Missouri prisons: the Missouri Eastern Correctional Center in Pacific, MO, and the Women’s Eastern Reception, Diagnostic, and Correctional Center in Vandalia, MO. As part of CAPS, PEP offers both the Associate in Arts and the Bachelor of Science in Integrated Studies (with concentrations in Humanities, Social Sciences, Natural Science, and Mathematics). PEP cultivates a rigorous college-in-prison environment that encourages and supports life-long curiosity, dialogue, and collaboration. By offering courses, degrees, and other opportunities for intellectual engagement in the liberal arts, PEP strives to  nurture thinkers and social change agents who positively impact their communities, families, and each other. In addition to its programs for incarcerated students, PEP offers staff at the Missouri Department of Corrections the opportunity to pursue courses and degrees through CAPS.
