One distinguishing feature of Colorado College is its Block Plan, in which professors teach, and students take, one course at a time. Each block is three and a half weeks long, and professors teach six of the eight blocks in an academic year. The Block Plan lends itself to field and project-based teaching, and funds and logistical support for such projects are available through the college and the Economics and Business Department.
