Internationalized courses or i-Courses provide students with opportunities to build intercultural competencies and skills.

Each internationalized course focuses on intercultural awareness, communication and collaboration with opportunities for GGC students to achieve broader global awareness and perspectives in multiple academic disciplines.

  • Verified i-Courses are designated in GGC's course schedule with the abbreviated international attribute “INTL.” i-Courses also appear on transcripts with the attribute “INTL.”
  • i-Courses have at least 30% international or global content. Many courses have international content, but not enough to be designated as an internationalized course.
  • i-Courses include traditional courses that complement your studies or chosen degree without extending the time it takes to complete your degree requirements to graduate.

Benefits of i-Courses

  • Prepares students to successfully interact in an increasingly global community – whether locally, nationally or internationally
  • Prepares students to work with people from different cultures, and live or travel abroad
  • Beneficial, even for those not pursuing a degree in international studies or working internationally
  • Adds value to your roles as an employee and engaged citizen
