     WORKLOAD
    The course is designed with a workload requirement equal to an advanced level university course. Each year of the program contains three major activities: class sessions, projects/assignments, and workshops. While time commitments vary widely with students’ backgrounds and time of year, many report that an average of 4 to 5 hours per week of preparation are required for each activity. A significant proportion of the preparation time is conducted in study groups and group membership is required.
