Residency Requirements
The MSM program requires that students attend three face-to-face residencies. All courses that require face-to-face components also require online components. The courses requiring residency fit within the normal 8-week term schedule. Residencies are generally around the 3rd week of the term.
What courses are required during the residencies?
Residency 1
The first residency is the longest and requires a total of 11 days on campus. During the first residency, students are required to take the following courses:
- Med502 Interpersonal Conflict (2 days)
- Med503 Conflict Intervention Skills (9 days)
Residencies 2 & 3
The second and third residencies are six days each. Students will take MED511 Advanced Practice I in the second residency and MED512 Advanced Practice II in the third; both require 2.5 days of residency. Students must also choose two of the following four courses to be taken concurrently with the Advanced Practice courses:
- Med521 Organizational Conflict (2.5 days)
- Med522 Identity-based conflict (2.5 days)
- Med523 Facilitation (2.5 days)
- Med524 Family /divorce mediation (2.5 days)
The sixth day of residencies 2 and 3 are reserved for special topics, discussions with faculty, students and notables in the field.
When are residencies offered and who attends?
Residencies are offered in the first Spring term (January-February) and Summer term (May-June) of each year. Students from all levels of the program and most faculty gather during the residencies making them wonderful opportunities to create community, develop professional networks and to discuss issues of common concern among the program’s members.
For 2009-10, residences are: Jan. 25 to Feb. 5 and May 31 to June 11
