Catalog

In this course, students from Purdue University (West Lafayette, Indiana) and at universities abroad will collaborate virtually in interdisciplinary teams to identify solutions to a major global challenge. Each semester, the theme of the global challenge changes. At the start of the course, students at both universities will meet together as a class to learn about the topic from a range of disciplinary perspectives through guest lectures, assigned readings, and class discussions. Students will then be divided into interdisciplinary teams with members from both universities and provided a prompt related to the semester's theme. Teams will spend several weeks of the course focused on researching, developing, and packaging their solutions, before presenting them publicly at the end of the term. In addition to increasing knowledge of the topic and improving teamwork skills, students in this course will advance in intercultural knowledge, skills, and attitudes through their international collaborative experience.
