For seven years, FIU has conducted dynamic virtual courses that connect Panthers with their international peers. Students in Miami have met with others around the world online for instruction, discussions, projects and even research collaborations, effectively gaining global perspectives and learning about different approaches to solving problems. Nearly 6,000 FIU students have participated in these immersive, interactive courses, led by faculty trained in creating a seamless learning experience that crosses institutions, continents and time zones. Now FIU has gained attention for teaching other universities how to do the same.
