2012 Undergraduate Summer Courses

MAKE THIS SUMMER COUNT

You’re probably already thinking about what you want to do this summer. Have you considered taking a course at Goucher?

That's right -- Goucher is now offering a selection of undergraduate summer courses.

By taking a course this summer you can explore a subject you couldn't fit in your normal course load or complete a requirement so that you can focus on your major in the fall -- in half the time of a regular semester and with plenty of time left over to enjoy summer activities.

Below is our preliminary list of courses being offered. The final list will be posted here in early February 2012. Please check back for updates.

For more information, contact the Registrar’s office at registrar@goucher.edu.
