• The Center for Continuing Education and Summer Programs serves students in ways that may not be possible through the structure of regular daytime programs and courses. Both credit and noncredit courses are offered. Mini-courses, customized workshops, contract courses, and special business programs are among the opportunities provided. Because they are funded completely by student fees, courses must meet minimum enrollments. For more information about summer and night programs, contact the Center for Continuing Education and Summer Programs at 406-243-7812.
