The course descriptions for classes offered at RIT Croatia can be found on RIT SIS. To display the course offerings, change the location at the bottom of the search page to the appropriate campus. The course offerings for the Global Campuses are typically released later than the course offerings for RIT Rochester. However, the course offerings are fairly consistent from year to year, so using the previous year’s course offerings as a tentative list is appropriate.

Students studying abroad at an RIT Global Campus will be registered for their courses by the RIT Education Abroad Office (you are not able to register yourself for Global Campus courses in SIS). You will work with your study abroad advisor on how to find available courses and complete the Global Campus Course Selection form. The RIT Education Abroad Office uses the Course Selection Form to register you for your chosen courses abroad.
