Course formats

There are three types of course formats:

Intensive courses are taught in a concentrated manner over a one-to-two week period.

• Typically taught over consecutive weekdays.
• Suitable for those in a position to take a short period of time out of work for training or professional development, as well as full-time students.

Block courses are broken into chunks and taught in the evening, on Fridays and/or on Saturdays.

• Typically spaced over two or more weeks and sometimes over several months.
• As with intensive courses, designed to accommodate full-time workers as well as full-time students.

Weekly courses run with two-hour weekly meetings over one or two trimesters.

• This is our standard course format.
• The majority of 500-level courses are offered in the late afternoon or evening.

Intensive and block courses have been indicated in the course detail below.
