About Extension Education Courses

Our courses, even though numbered EDEX 100 and EDEX 200, are all graduate level.  The prefix, EDEX, is the subject code, indicating the courses are extension courses offered through Extended Campus Programs in the School of Education.  Up to six hours can be used as electives, with advisor approval, in several graduate programs within the Drake University, School of Education.
