We offer a course spread over 17 Saturdays from November through May, totaling 100 hours of instruction that can be taken in person or online. You’ll also have access to an online learning platform that provides a wide range of content and tools (videos, quizzes, forums, etc.) so you can review different parts of the material on your own, practice, and prepare for class sessions to get the most out of them. Find out more here about how to enroll in the program, its curriculum, the schedule, and how classes are organized.
Information Session
On Tuesday, October 27, 2026, from 2:00 p.m. to 4:00 p.m., an information session on the program and the methodology implemented for the various disciplines will be held both in person and online. The link to join this session online will be available 15 minutes beforehand on this page.
Course syllabi will be available during this session and, starting on that date, at the Student Services Office during regular business hours. They will also be distributed on the first Saturday of classes at the entrance to the lecture hall (Saturday, November 7, 2026).
Training Program
This session is designed to review all scientific subjects—mathematics, physics, chemistry, and biology—and to prepare students for the “Communication and Critical Analysis of Information” section. A comprehensive syllabus for each scientific discipline is provided at the beginning of the session. For the second section, materials are available on the platform.
The classes are structured in two parts. First, there is a brief review of the theoretical concepts you were asked to review the week before the session, followed by numerous exercises in the form of multiple-choice questions, which are graded and annotated by the instructors to help you develop speed and in-depth critical thinking.
This session includes 100 hours of instruction.
- 26 hours of physics
- 24 hours of chemistry
- 20 hours of mathematics
- 18 hours of biology
- 12 hours of communication and critical analysis of information
