one hour of classroom or direct faculty instruction and two hours of out-of-class student work each week for approximately ten to twelve weeks.
For example, a 4.5 quarter-credit course would require at a minimum 45 hours of academic engagement and 90 hours of preparation for a tota
of 135 hours. A credit hour is assumed to be a 50-minute (not 60-minute) period. These dates are subject to change.
