Yes! We STRONGLY recommend you consult with your appropriate academic unit head (department chair, school director, dean, etc.) to ensure that your goal for a “DI Section” of your course is in line with the unit’s goals and values. This will also help your academic unit head and schedulers better plan for scheduling your section.
We will consider applications on a rolling basis and try to accommodate what we can. We will operate on a ‘first come, first served’ basis, so start planning early! Ideally, the application should be submitted prior to the academic term (semester or summer) BEFORE the term you would like to be scheduled in the DI HUB.

There are only two key requirements to have your course become a DI Section, ANY course from any discipline can apply:
If your course or course section has at least one team-based project (ideally tackling a complex problem and/or working across disciplinary boundaries) AND
To inquire about having your course become a DI section contact J.R. Campbell at jrcamp@kent.edu
