Block System: Immersive Learning at MIU
Learn more with less stress
At MIU you’re never juggling 4-5 classes, homework, and finals at once. On-campus students take just one course per month in our block system, while online students are immersed in just 1-2 courses at a time.
This is immensely popular with our students because they naturally learn more, and it eliminates the stress of studying multiple subjects at once. And there’s never a finals week!
