Term: Summer 

Description: The summer options at DIS are not run-of-the-mill summer programs. For early summer 2010, DIS offers 25 3-Credit courses within a variety of academic fields. The courses are offered in two consecutive sessions, 12 in Session 1 (May 19 - June 9), and 13 in Session 2 (June 12 - July 2). You can choose to enroll in one course for 3 credits, either in Session 1 or in Session 2, or you can enroll in two courses for 6 credits, one in Session 1 and one in Session 2. Most summer students choose this option for 6 credits. You are free to combine any two courses from Sessions 1 and 2.
