Program Structure & Courses

Tailor the Virtual Summer to your own academic needs and availability, enrolling in 1 to 2 courses over a four-week period. The July and August options offer 1 to 2 simultaneous courses in four weeks. Each course is worth 3 credits.

All courses will be taught in English using an online Learning Management System. You are expected to be an active participant in online forums, in addition to completing your regular readings, videos and homework. The online structure enables you to learn at your own pace during the allocated time, allowing you to absorb new content and work on your projects and assignments at your own rhythm.

Upon enrollment in the program, you will select your preferred courses. You will be enrolled into courses based on their availability, therefore we recommend you have alternative courses approved by your home university should your first choice courses not meet enrollment minimums. Please consult with your academic advisor at your home university on credit pre-approval guidelines.
