Please note: In order to maximize student learning and enrollment numbers, courses are taught only Spring or Fall (not both). 学生s who start in the Spring will begin with 2nd semester courses then take 1st semester courses the next Fall. That is why 2nd and 3rd semesters are both taught in Spring. It does not mean that students will need to “skip” a semester to progress in the program. Some students may take semesters 1, 2, 4, 3. 其他人可能会选择2、1、3、4。 学生可以参加全日制或非全日制课程。
