Dear colleagues,
As many of you know, since last summer KPU students have been able to search for course sections that have zero required textbook costs using the Zed Cred course attribute. They have further been able to use
these courses to complete the requirements for several programs at KPU (see
https://www.kpu.ca/open/zedcred for more information about this initiative). Cumulatively, over the past four semesters KPU students have saved over $2 million through this initiative.
I am delighted to inform you that today (the start of Fall registration), we are adding two new programs to this list: the
Associate of Arts Degree in Sociology and the
Diploma in General Studies. Students who earn either of these credentials can expect to save ~$2250 in textbook costs over the course of their program.
I want to thank our colleagues in the Department of Sociology and in the Dean of Arts Office for their hard work in making this happen. Happily, this means that KPU now hosts the first five zero textbook cost undergraduate programs in Canada!
Cheers,
Rajiv
