Student work is measured in credit hours (CH).
To earn a bachelor’s degree, the student must complete a minimum of 120 approved credit hours.
To earn a master’s degree, the student must complete a minimum of 60 approved credit hours.
One credit is equivalent to 15 hours of 60 minutes of virtual classroom instruction and 30 hours of homework for reading, research, study time, and homework development.
Courses at STU generally involve three units of credit totaling 135 hours, divided into five weeks, corresponding to 27 hours of work per week (class + homework).
