Course Structure
The courses are presented in 12-week terms and consist of assigned readings, threaded discussions, case studies, written analysis, research projects and examinations.
Students must be prepared to spend 10-12 hours in study a week to complete the work. ECCU encourages regular and frequent student-faculty interaction via internet. Syllabi and grading rubrics clearly set out the course requirements, expectations and timelines, and students are kept abreast of their progress in the course through the MyECCU Online Learning Management System.

The MSS program is offered 100% online, allowing students to complete course work in a time frame that fits each person’s individual schedule. This also requires that the student has the appropriate kinds of technology and connectivity to sustain constant participation in class activities.
