At Mercer County Community College

10/6/09


West Windsor, N.J. - For those seeking to complete a college class in six weeks online or in three weeks on campus this winter, Mercer County Community College is adding two accelerated sessions during its traditional mid-winter break. Mercer's new Winter Session will include nearly 30 courses from across the college curriculum. Three-week courses will be held on the college's West Windsor campus, 1200 Old Trenton Road, and the James Kerney Campus at 102 N. Broad Street in downtown Trenton. Enrollment for Winter Session classes begins Oct. 26.

The online session offered through Mercer's Virtual College starts Dec. 21 and runs through Feb 1, 2010. The course list includes Business Law I (BUS 107); Developmental Psychology: Across the Life Span (PSY 207); Medical Terminology (HPE 113); and Moral Choices (PHI 205). An online hybrid course, American History and Literature: Freedom and the U.S. Constitution (ENG/HIS 238), can be taken for credits in either English or history. The course blends both online and classroom components, and includes field trips mid-session. Online courses have been scheduled to accommodate students attending four-year colleges or universities and can be completed mostly between their home school's fall and spring semesters.

The three-week, on-campus session begins Jan. 4 and continues through Jan. 22, 2010. Classes meet three to four days per week, both day and evening.
