This summer, Hartwick presents more than 60 online courses over three sessions during “Summer Sessions 2022,” in subjects ranging from accounting to theatre and everything in between. The courses are designed to meet a variety of needs for those seeking college credit or trying to take their career to the next level. Current Hartwick students, students enrolled at other colleges, recent high school graduates, high school seniors (with permission), and adult students wanting to continue their education are welcome to enroll. All courses are offered online, letting students learn on their own time.

Summer Sessions 2022 registration is now open.

“We are especially pleased with this year’s line-up of courses available during Summer Session 2022,” said Pauline Stamp, associate professor of BUSA, co-chair of the Business and Accounting Department, and coordinator of the 2022 Summer Online Program. “As the College has become more adept at presenting curricula online, it has proven a boon to the summer online program. Whether it be a basic elective class, an upper-level requirement towards a major, or a class to help the adult learning polish skills for an ever-changing business world, we have something for almost everyone’s needs this summer.”

Nearly 20 business courses are available this summer, ranging from fundamental topics like accounting and marketing to more advanced subject matter including “Stocks, Blockchain, & Entrepreneurship” and “Fashion Branding.”

New courses offered across the academic spectrum include:

• “Can We Talk?” (Session 1) is an Applied Theater for Health Education course that discusses the use of theatre methods within an educational or therapeutic context. Students will use elements of theatrical play to develop community building, leadership, research, communication, and presentation skills by working with diverse groups to devise personal and community well-being projects.
• “Religion and Music” (Session 2), is a course that will provide students an opportunity to understand and appreciate the magic, beauty, and hidden meanings of spiritual music from antiquity to modernity, from shamanic drums to electric guitars. Students will critically examine ritual music in a variety of historical periods, styles, and worship traditions
• In “Sociology of Conspiracies,” (Session 3), students will study the history and present-day consequences of conspiracies in the United States and internationally. The course will focus on the social psychological rationales behind belief, as well as the macro-level factors that influence beliefs. The sociological origins and rationales behind Freemasons, 9/11 truthers, anti-vaxxers, and coronavirus conspiracists, among others, will be highlighted.
