College of DuPage Field and Experiential Learning/Study Abroad

Field and Experiential Learning is an academic program at COD offering credit courses that combine classroom work with empirical field experience. Classes are experience based/faculty facilitated. The instructor's role is largely that of a facilitator who helps learning take place. Courses are grouped into four categories: Weekend and Outdoor, Natural Science, Social Science and Cultural, and International. Classes may be taken in any order or combination.

Some students enroll to earn credit toward a degree or certificate; others are interested in learning about or visiting a particular destination. Still others are interested in learning outdoor or wilderness skills. You are welcome, whatever your interests.
