Instructional Design and Learning Technologies (MA) - Continuous Enrollment Cohort

Tentative Course Sequence

The M.A. in Instructional Design and Learning Technologies follows a continuous three-term course rotation. Full-time students enroll in the courses offered each semester beginning with their term of admission (Fall, Spring, or Summer). Students continue through the rotation until all degree requirements (30 credits) are completed.

Full-time students can generally finish the degree in four terms: three consecutive terms taking three courses (9 credits) a term–full-time enrollment–followed by one term taking one 3-credit course–part-time enrollment. Students who wish to avail of the 4 semester graduation pathway may work with advisors to see if alternative options are available if needed due to financial aid or other funding modes. 

Students can choose to complete in 5 semesters with 2 courses per semester as well.

Because the program follows a continuous rotation, students entering in different terms complete the same curriculum in a different starting point, ensuring timely degree completion without separate cohort schedules.

Note: While every attempt will be made to follow the above schedule, the IDLT program reserves the right to make changes if needed. In such cases, if needed,  alternate options will be determined by the advisors, in collaboration with the students.
