Good Online International Relations/Global Studies Degrees?

I am looking for good recommendations for International Relations or Global Studies bachelor degree programs. I struggle to learn from just exorbitant amounts of reading and pointless exercises, so I would prefer programs that either have live virtual classes with a variety of times or recorded lectures that I could watch. If anyone has had any great experiences or has had terrible experiences and is willing to share their feedback, it would be much appreciated. Thank you.

Have you considered looking into programs that emphasize interactive learning? Some universities offer robust online platforms that include both recorded and live sessions.

I appreciate the suggestion. I am particularly interested in institutions that prioritize engagement in their teaching methods.

I had a positive experience with a university that provided a mix of synchronous and asynchronous learning. This balance helped me manage my time better while still engaging with instructors.
