About the Program
CourseShare provides CIC students with access to more courses by making courses at other CIC schools available through technology.
In December 2005, the CIC Deans of Liberal Arts & Sciences launched an effort to establish a voluntary, systematic method of sharing courses across the curriculum to enhance access to specialized graduate and low-enrollment offerings for all participating CIC universities and their students.
The CourseShare initiative focuses primarily on offerings that can be “technology facilitated” to eliminate barriers of time and distance. While the initial focus has included less commonly taught languages, cultural and area studies, and other specialized seminars in the social sciences and humanities, the project will expand in AY 2008-2009 to support course sharing campus wide.
