Schema.org type for a study course

Question

I haven't been able to find any Schema.org type that fits a sheet describing the properties of a course from a university.

The HTML (without any semantic markup using Schema.org) would look more or less like this:

<section>
    <h2>Fact sheet</h2>
    <p><strong>Formal qualifications:</strong> Bachelor’s Degree in Design</p>
    <p><strong>Credits</strong>: 240 ECTS</p>
    <p><strong>Duration</strong>: 4 academic years or 240 ECTS</p>
    <p><strong>School period</strong>: from October to June</p>
    <p><strong>Timetable</strong>: Morning Group: from Monday to Friday from 9am to 2.30pm. Evening Group: from Monday to Friday from 3:30 pm to 9.00 pm * The college reserves the right to modify schedules.</p>
    <strong>Price</strong>: 112 €/ 1 ECTS
    …
</section>

I thought about using Product, but it lacks lots of things.

Any ideas?

As this thread still appears on search engines, perhaps it's better to update that a Course schema was released lately: http://schema.org/Course

Google is also endorsing it at this moment: https://developers.google.com/search/docs/data-types/courses (So far I haven't seen rich snippets "live" though).

I have implemented this and I have to admit that it is not exhaustive and there is still work to be done to improve it. I noticed that Coursera.org is using properties that are not released yet, so I believe that more properties will be coming soon.

For your information!
