Would you mind expanding a bit. It mentions 5-10 hrs per week but how many weeks - is 52ish (with time off for hols) too obvious? "self paced" doesn't really help 8)

Note to OP - there are two basic texts for this course: Peterson and Davie or Kurose and Ross. The first link is broken but you should be able to find them with your search engine of choice.
