The Office of Undergraduate Education is encouraging instructor-level and tenured/tenure-track faculty from all colleges and departments to participate in the 2020-21 academic year First-Year听Seminar (FYS) program.
First-Year Seminars are academically rigorous 3-credit courses, limited to 19 undergraduate students in their first year at CU Boulder. Their听purpose is to engage new students intellectually, strengthen core academic skills, and provide听opportunities for faculty mentoring.
Faculty from all units and colleges are invited to propose a听seminar on a topic of their choice for fall 2020/spring 2021.听Innovative and multi-disciplinary topics听are encouraged, and the FYS program offers possibilities for linking courses across disciplines, or for听incorporating a brief study-abroad experience.听A list of听current seminars听can be found online.听
