The MSOT Program is designed as a full-time, lock-step graduate program. The program includes 10-17 credit hours each semester (many courses also have labs), therefore, will require a significant amount of dedicated time each week. While much of the course content is delivered in an asynchronous online format, there will also be some synchronous online sessions, as well as on-campus requirements.
In order to be successful, students will need to be very organized and self-directed, with some flexibility in work/personal schedules. Work schedules must be adjusted to meet class times for synchronous session and on-campus weekends, and course requirements cannot be adjusted based on individual work demands.
