Poetry is a writing discipline rooted in expression and rhythm. Students in programs of this type may learn to analyze the work of any number of poets as a means of better understanding the art form, as well as learning to draft poems of their own.

Summer courses are often an avenue used by students to attain additional certificates or qualifications outside of the normal school year. Whether they are bridging the gap between levels of study or adding to a career knowledge base, these courses can be found in almost any area of study.
