Planning your seven months
- Block the Sundays early: three hours of live sessions leave little room for clashes with family or travel
- Expect assessment checkpoints: Modules 1 and 2 each end with an assignment plus a quiz or exam
- Pick a capstone problem that matters: if your employer permits, a real workplace project makes the capstone more useful — this is our suggestion, not a programme rule
- Plan the campus immersion: confirm dates once you are admitted and arrange leave in advance
