Just as some colleges and universities expressed ambitiously in their official website, the purpose of starting a small semester is to "strengthen curriculum construction, innovate talent training mode, improve teachers' quality, improve teaching quality, and comprehensively raise the level of internationalization".
primary school curriculum
The spring and autumn semesters are compulsory, and all students at school must take courses with certain credits, while the summer semester is voluntary and the school is not mandatory. Although there are no hard and fast rules for the summer semester of elective courses, students are very active in summer classes.
American colleges and universities implement a complete credit system, and students who complete the credits first can graduate early. For those students who want to graduate early, summer semester is a good choice for them to finish their credits quickly.
