There are two to four weeks between meetings so that you can complete your readings and work. During the three days students hear a series of lectures on current business topics from experts in the field and campus faculty. At the completion of the three days, students research each of the topics in preparation for writing a significant paper addressing the topics. The papers are due 30 days after the conclusion of the seminar and are an average of 30-40 pages. During the seminar students have the opportunity to interact with other students who, just like them, are balancing family, career, and education.
Students complete all of the coursework in five days.
During these five days students only have time for class and coursework, but at the end of the five days you are one class closer to earning your degree. The program is intended for busy adult students who are unable to attend campus or outreach programs. This program will offer Northwood's core business curriculum classes taught by full-time campus faculty. These courses are completed entirely outside of the classroom. To complete the exam students must research questions, topics, and exercises and submit the entire course for evaluation by a professor.
