The city immersion courses remain an important component of what we do. A big key to effective online learning is building a sense of community. All students who enter into the five academic degree programs must apply what they’re learning where they live, work, and play. During onsite components of urban immersion courses, BGU students are developing WhatsApp groups to support each other during and for months after those life-changing experiences.
