NOTICE

Due to the restrictions set as a result of the COVID 19 pandemic, all MFRI class sessions that are lectures will be conducted via Zoom through the University Canvas system. Courses that are entirely lecture programs will be conducted entirely via Zoom. However, students may be required to personally attend the first session at the advertised location for final registration requirements, orientation and to receive class materials. In addition any class that has written testing shall meet at the class location by direction of the instructor or appropriate MFRI office.

In addition, in all cases where classes will meet at the course location, students will be subject to wellness checks, social distancing and workgroups of 10 or less.

Spring Classes are currently a work in progress. More classes will be released to the schedule as host facilities confirm those with us.
