27 | Important considerations: | ||||
28 | -For mastery of content, program is designed for student to take one VCS course per session (two/semester) unless part of an approved, accelerated course sequence. | ||||
29 | -Courses are rigorous, condensed into 7.5 weeks for fall and spring, and 6 weeks for summer semester. Plan to spend 15-20 hours+ each week for each course. | ||||
30 | -3 credits of SPE 580-practicum may replace one elective course. $1500 fee may be included in addition to 1 credit of tuition per semester. | ||||
31 | -Students may enroll for more than one SPE 598 course as long as the topic is different. | ||||
32 | -SPE 525 is the core requirement on iPOS; other VCS coursework is considered concentration, in addition to electives and culminating experience. No 'open' courses. | ||||
