About COIL:

COIL – Collaborative Online International Learning – is a dynamic form of virtual exchange that connects students with peers around the world. COIL takes the form of an experiential learning project or module co-created through a faculty or staff “match” with a faculty or staff at a partner institution in another region or country. By working virtually across borders students can develop and apply any number of mindsets and skills, such as systems thinking, digital fluency, collaboration, communication, and strategic problem solving. Staff and faculty COIL leaders expand their professional networks and enhance their portfolio through collaboration with an international partner.
