New UNITE Policy for Undergraduate Students

Streaming Video and Podcasts

UNITE offers live and asynchronous access to course lectures for a variety of courses.

Live Access: Streaming Video
For live lectures, UNITE "streams" video to your computer (proper, free software and a fast Internet connection is required). 

Asynchronous Access: Streaming Video Archives and Video Podcasts
Streaming Video archives also require a fast Internet connection while viewing. Or download Video Podcasts to view on your computer, iPod, PSP, Zune, or other device.  Use our RSS feeds to automate the podcast download schedule.

The streaming video archives and podcasts are typically available about an hour after each course session and are available until the day of the final exam for each course.

View demonstrations, learn about streaming video, podcasts, system requirements and test your Internet connection at our "How UNITE Streaming Video and Podcasts Work" page.
