Örgün öğretime alternatif olarak üniversitelerde uygulanmaya başlanan Uzaktan Öğretim, programlara kabul edilen öğrenci sayısı, gün geçtikçe açılan yeni programlar ve bölümler ile artık Türkiye’de de önemli bir yere gelmiştir. Uzaktan eğitim’in yeni açılan programlar ile ileride çok daha fazla kitleye eğitim verilmesine imkân sağlayacağı öngörülmektedir. Bu çalışmada 2008-2009 öğretim yılı güz döneminde Gazi Üniversitesi Atatürk Meslek Yüksek Okulu Uzaktan Eğitim Programı bünyesindeki Web Teknolojileri ve Programlama, Bilgisayar Teknolojileri ve Programlama, İşletme, Bilgi Yönetimi ve Muhasebe Bölümleri’ndeki gönüllü 264 öğrenciden elde edilen demografik özellikler incelenmektedir. Demografik bilgilerin yanı sıra öğrencilerin uzaktan eğitimi tercih etme nedenleri, beklentileri ve mezun olduktan sonraki hedefleri de incelenmiştir.
