The demand for professional education is changing higher education, made even more dramatic due to the convenience and richness of the Internet as a learning environment. The Systems Engineering program at Portland State University (PSU) has offered Internet courses every term since the spring term of 1999. During that time, a variety of issues were addressed, covering everything from technical requirements, development tools, teaching methodologies, learning approaches, program promotion, diversity of a global student body, student services, student satisfaction, and faculty buy‐in. Many of these experiences have been distilled into a number of “lessons learned,” related to our courses and program.
