OSUN Online Courses and OSUN Network Collaborative Courses

OSUN Online Courses are offered by a single institution to students across the OSUN network.  They take place entirely online and include students from the host institution.  Students register through a centralized application portal and are then enrolled at the institution that offers the course and receive course credit transferred from that institution.

OSUN Network Collaborative Courses are co-designed and taught simultaneously across partner institutions.  Students enroll in and receive credit for these courses at their own institution.  The courses may differ by institution but share key assignments and bring students at different campuses together to have class discussions and collaborate online.
