Credit Hour
A credit hour is a unit of measure that gives value to the level of instruction, academic rigor, time requirements, and fulfillment of learning objectives for a course taken at Cox College. Basically, it is a proxy measure of student learning as defined by the fulfillment of learning objectives and assignments that are reasonably judged to require an amount of time at least equivalent to 45 hours per credit (combination of contact time between student and faculty and the student's independent work). At Cox College this is commonly the standard for semester credits associated with classroom-based, conventional and accelerated coursework as well as with online instruction.
