Canvas Course (FGCU Students and new hires are already enrolled)

 

We have some exciting news! Starting this fall, you are now able to track your progress toward degree completion using a web-based tool available online called Degree Works.  Degree Works organizes a student’s course work in an easy to read report (degree audit) summarizing completed and missing requirements for a degree, as defined in the Florida Gulf Coast University catalog. The Degree Works audit is UNOFFICIAL and does not take the place of regular academic advising. Students should discuss their progress toward degree completion with their advisor after reviewing their degree audit.

Some key features of Degreeworks are listed below:
