The following is a list of program-approved courses. You can click on each course to view course descriptions, available sections, course dates, meeting days/times, and other relevant course information. Some courses will require additional permissions and/or prerequisite coursework. Please see course descriptions for details. 

Courses may overlap with your current academic year. Please make sure to check the course meeting dates prior to applying.

*Online Courses will run using synchronous or asynchronous remote instruction formats.

  • Courses run using synchronous remote instruction will have scheduled meeting days and times. Students are expected to connect remotely during those times. These classes typically involve web conferencing.
  • Courses run using asynchronous remote instruction will have no scheduled class sessions. These courses will have a regular schedule of work and assignments due throughout each week but will not require students to be online at a particular time. Rather, the instructor will provide materials—for example, readings, video content, presentations, lectures, assignments, and exams. Students will access these materials and satisfy the course requirements within the time frames specified by the instructor.
