Schedule
Overview
The MSQM is a part-time, 20-month program which comprises 22 short courses, taken one at a time. Each course is 1.5 credits, for a total of 33 credits.
The program starts every year in August and students take courses continuously, with multiple long weekends off and other breaks of varied length, including two weeks in December/January and a spring break. The program is lock-step, meaning students follow a prescribed schedule and take all courses together as a cohort.
Residential Immersions
The predominantly online MSQM program also includes two immersive four-day residencies, one each August on NYU’s Greenwich Village campus. During each residency, students will take classes in person as well as participate in social and networking events.
