Purpose

This policy outlines the type of work and time spent on work for student assignments per course credit hour.

Scope

This policy applies to all students.

Policy

Student work is defined as assignments, homework, and other academic activities to be completed outside of instructional time, including reading, studying, writing, research, etc. Students should expect to spend a minimum of two hours per week completing this work for each credit hour enrolled (thus, six hours of work outside of class for a three-credit-hour course), although the time spent outside of class may increase based on the topic and level of the course.

Please direct any questions about this policy to the Office of the Registrar.
