Seminar Format

Using the blended learning model described above, each concentration seminar has three learning components:

  • Pre-Seminar Component (typically, 6 weeks): Students complete pre-seminar reading and assignments and participate in online, asynchronous discussions.
  • Face-to-Face Component: Seminars will be conducted at a pre-determined location (locations vary by concentration) and will consist of 24 hours of face-to-face seminar instruction.
  • Post-Seminar Component (typically, 6 weeks): Students complete post-seminar reading and assignments and participate in online, asynchronous discussions.

Professors may build in ½ week breaks before and after the face-to-face seminar experiences.
