  The Program of

Freshman Seminars

The Freshman Seminar program is designed to  introduce you to a field of study by way of a special topic, issue, or problem of interest to you.  You will have the challenge of exploring the course material in depth with a faculty member and a small group of peers. These topics are accessible to all students either with no prerequisites or with prerequisites freshmen should have completed, such as the writing requirement. Limited to 15 students, these seminars will be reading and discussion-based with an emphasis on papers, projects, studio work, or hands-on field experience rather than exams. All of the freshman seminars are regular courses, worth either 3 or 4 credits, and fulfill  an FDR  requirement. In some cases, these seminars may serve as a prerequisite or satisfy a requirement in a major.

Please take this opportunity to review these exciting course offerings. For full descriptions of the seminars follow the links.
