Hyflex Course Offerings
The School of Education offers some of its undergraduate courses in “Hyflex” format. As outlined on the Registrar’s Delivery Methods page, a Hyflex (hybrid flexible) course enables students the flexibility to attend in some combination of face to face, synchronous online, and asynchronous online. Course interaction requirements, including the amount of synchronized or real-time live class interaction expected, depends upon the course design established by the class instructor and approved by the Chair of the Education Department and Dean of the School of Education. Students are encouraged to review the course schedule’s “Delivery Method” to determine which classes are in Hyflex format and may contact the instructor of record listed on the course schedule with any questions about participation and class interaction requirements.
