Propose an INTD 1820 (Faculty/Student Seminar)

A component of the First Year Experience (FYE) program, INTD 1820 is a seminar course that is intended to provide an opportunity for students to investigate topics of professional interest to the faculty instructor through guided research or reading, discussion, and some writing. The course will help students learn independently and engage actively in the academic life of the university.

INTD 1820 classes are open to freshman and sophomore students only. With a change in content, the course may be repeated for credit.
