This quarter, we have three styles of courses for students:

  • Live Online Courses: Classes are held on Zoom at regularly scheduled times. Instructors lecture, engage students in discussion, and respond to questions just as they would in a physical classroom. Most instructors supplement the live sessions with readings, handouts, and assignments.

  • Flex Online Courses: These courses offer a variety of instructional materials available on demand in weekly modules (videos, readings, discussions, assignments); plus live meetings on Zoom with the instructor and fellow students. These weekly meetings are optional to attend, and are recorded. With "Flex Online", course sizes are limited and there is frequent interaction with the instructor. Learn more > Flex Online FAQs
     
  • On-Campus Courses: Courses are offered weeknights and weekends on the historic Stanford campus ranging from 1 day to 10 weeks.
