Linked Cohort Program
Linked courses offer integrated topics that explore complex, real-world issues.What is a Learning Community?
Learning Communities are courses linked by a theme and taken by a cohort of students. The interdisciplinary approach to learning enables multiple ways to process the content and creates a continuous academic community.
What is a Linked Course?
Students enroll in two courses which are linked by a common project or skill. As with learning communities, two instructors collaborate to create a strong sense of community and shared learning. Integration can include any combination of the following components:
¨ Career exploration/employability skills
¨ Thematic overlap
¨ Shared projects (with thematic overlap)
¨ Service Learning project
What Students Are Saying:
"I benefited from the joint assignments and had a lot of fun"
"It made it easier to do assignments and meet people in my class"
“I like that we all help each other with our homework and go to events together… Since we are in the same classes, we get to know each other quickly.”
