Collaborative Online International Learning (COIL)

WHAT IS COIL?

COIL (Collaborative Online International Learning) connects students and professors in different countries for collaborative projects and discussions.

Seneca’s Global Business Development students collaborated with Florida International University’s Marketing students. Throughout GBD’s Integrated Project course, students connected with Florida through Zoom. Topics of discussion included sharing cultures, traditions, recipes, and much more. Students worked together on group assignments regarding hospitality and tourism topics.

At the end of the course, students will receive a certificate that states that have successfully completed the COIL project between Canada and the USA.
