Health, Safety and Academics 

It's important for you to stay healthy and safe while you learn and engage in other academic activities. With the help of digital technology, we're able to offer courses in person and online, and through a mix of the two methods. Learn about different course formats.  

When in-person interaction is needed, we're protecting your well-being with enhanced cleaning procedures and guidelines regarding mask use and physical distancing. You can help yourself and our community stay healthy by learning about and following our safety precautions.
