The curriculum is structured in Threads and Systems with longitudinal disciplines integrated throughout the 4 years.

A Thread is a thematic collection of Systems. A Thread is comparable to a semester at the collegiate level in that it lasts the duration of a semester and is comprised of several Systems.

Systems are the components of a Thread. A system is comparable to the collegiate level course.
