Course Areas
Course Areas are directories that are created for each College of Engineering course for instructors, TAs, and students. Instructors and TAs are able to write to directories in the Course Areas, while students are only able to read. Course Areas provide a means for instructors and TAs to hand out course information and materials to students.
You can access the Course Areas by browsing to the following UNC path (see the above section entitled ‘Terminology and Usage’ for more information):
