Credit Hour
A credit hour is the unit of measure for college coursework. One credit hour is earned by attending a non-laboratory class for 50 minutes a week per semester. For laboratory, clinical, and internship courses, one credit hour/semester hour is granted for two or three hours of coursework per week. Online/hybrid courses meet the credit hour requirement through a time on task calculation as outlined in IR 6520 Online Learning.
