The above schedule illustrates the curriculum design: one five-day residency in Lewes, Delaware, in late August to kick off the program and five nine-week semesters, each with nine credits of coursework. It also provides an overview of each semester's content; however, the curriculum timing may be adjusted.

Specialty Course

The specialty course will be selected by the Executive Education Committee. The selection of the course will be based on current business issues, input from the regional corporate community, faculty expertise and availability and student interest. Specialty courses range from one to three credits per course.
