How to Calculate Curriculum Hours

Total instructional hours measure the amount of contact time in a program.

Formula

Total Hours = Courses x Hours per Session x Sessions per Week x Weeks

Standards

  • One credit hour = 15-16 contact hours per semester
  • A 3-credit course = ~48 contact hours
  • Full-time semester (15 credits) = ~240 contact hours

    • Exemplo Resolvido

    8 courses, 1.5 hours per session, 2 sessions/week, 16 weeks.

    1. Weekly per course = 1.5 x 2 = 3 hours
    2. Weekly total = 8 x 3 = 24 hours
    3. Hours per course = 3 x 16 = 48 hours
    4. Total curriculum = 8 x 3 x 16 = 384 hours
