The program offers flexibility in choosing 0-3 modules in each quarter. Typically, students take 4 core modules and 8 elective modules over 4-12 quarters i.e. 1 - 3 years.
There are three approaches to sequence to modules that best suit your needs and availability :
For applicants who are unable to take out the necessary number of hours per week however, we encourage them to take fewer modules per quarter, as illustrated in the following example:
Please note, the final template can be a mixture of above approaches, and may have 0-3 modules per quarter. Typically, core modules are taken before the elective modules.
Quarter 1 | Module | Schedule |
