Program Details

The curriculum combines required courses with electives, providing practical knowledge students can apply immediately in their current roles. Classes run 4-9:10 p.m. ET on Friday and 9 a.m. - 5:10 p.m. ET on Saturday.

The curriculum is delivered through the cutting-edge technology of our digital learning studios, includes live interactive classes, self-guided modules, and three in-person residences. Students take a set of required core courses and can choose from a variety of electives of their choosing. Most students will finish in two-and-a-half to three years.
