Cross-cultural Communications is an innovative program designed to serve the needs of Alaska Native and rural students at UAF. Recognizing that the transition to university communication patterns presents challenges which vary in type as well as degree, depending on a student's cultural background, CCC offers several courses designed to capitalize on the similarities of experience brought to the University by Alaska Native and rural students. It enables such students to make the transition more quickly than might otherwise be the case.

CCC courses which are not listed under Cross-Cultural Communications designators may be found under Developmental Studies, English and Mathematics where they can be recognized by -CC# and -CCC section numbers.
