Ken Heather, from the University of Portsmouth's Department of Economics, is teaching first year business students at the International University College in Sofia, Bulgaria, via an internet video-phone link.
He delivers his business administration and international finance and trade lectures at the university's e-learning studio in Portsmouth which are then transmitted live.
Ken is projected on to a large screen in a classroom in Bulgaria and students can speak down a microphone if they have questions.
Ken said: 'It is exciting to be remotely teaching our international students. We are on the edge of something experimental and I expect in ten years time it will be common for lecturers to deliver to audiences worldwide.'
The IUC has been delivering University of Portsmouth degrees to their students after a partnership was formed 16 years ago.
