The updated calendar for your studies
We offer a flexible and structured Academic Calendar to enhance your learning experience. Our calendar is divided into 10 study blocks, each lasting fourweeks. These blocks give you the opportunity to focus deeply on each unit, ensuring a comprehensive understanding of the material.
Compulsory and optional study blocks
Out of the 10 study blocks, the first four (Blocks 1-4) and the subsequent four (Blocks 5-8) are compulsory study periods. These blocks are designed to cover essential topics and ensure a strong foundation in your chosen field. On the other hand, the winter and summer blocks are optional, allowing you to tailor your study plan based on your preferences and requirements.
Full-time study load
For those pursuing full-time studies, the minimum requirement is to complete 8 units in a year. This ensures a consistent and manageable workload that fosters in-depth learning and academic growth.
Intakes throughout the year
We accommodate different schedules and preferences with eight intakes per year: February, March, May, June, August, September, October and November. This flexibility allows you to begin your educational journey at a time that suits you best.
Time Table
Depending on your course, your timetable will follow one of these structures:
- 2 x 4 hours x 4 weeks = 32 hours per unit of study, or
- 2 x 6 hours x 3 weeks = 36 hours, PLUS presentations and assessments conducted in the 4th week.
