The Video Communications Center is an integral part of Global Learning and Distance Education at Missouri S&T.  In 1985 the VCC began its operations by recording video tapes of courses for checkout in the library as well as pioneering some satellite broadcasts throughout the nation.  By 1999 they were delivering lectures live to distance students worldwide and had secured their spot as a leader in the growing field of distance education.  The VCC currently delivers hundreds of high quality, real-time, live courses each year and provides archived recordings for students to review throughout the semester.  Visit Butler-Carlton 213, one of our 9 studio classrooms, to see how we accomplish this and to try out the technology for yourself!
