Carroll Course CCE

Carroll course CCEs bring depth to the cross-cultural experience by preparing you with foundation and context. This added value makes it a popular choice for most students to fulfill their CCE requirement. You’ll benefit from the extensive preparation you gain in the classroom before you embark with your classmates and professor on your off-campus cultural immersion. Most Carroll courses CCEs involve a semester-long course followed by a two- to four-week long cross-cultural experience where you have the opportunity to live what you’ve learned. You’ll benefit even more from the experienced faculty who will support you every step of the way.
