Abstract California State University/Dominguez Hills, in Carson, California, is a leader in distance learning in the twenty-three campus California State University system. A pioneer in distance learning in its system, California State University/Dominguez Hills now offers six degree programmes via the Internet and televises over thirty hours of classes per week. California State University/Dominguez Hills was recently named by Forbes magazine as one of twenty "Cyber Universities" in the United States. Five of the six on-line degree programmes offered by California State University/Dominguez Hills are Master's degree programmes; four of these are self-supporting, attracting students from around the world. The experience that California State University/Dominguez Hills has gained in distance learning places it in a unique position of leadership among state universities in the western United States.
