QUICKLINKS • First-Year Integrated Program • University Studies 2: UCI Majors • Undecided/Undeclared Advising Program • Transfer Seminar Program		STUDENTS Designed especially for first-year students, freshman seminars offer you an exciting opportunity to broaden your academic horizons. They are one-unit courses limited to 15 students that meet once a week for an hour throughout the quarter. You can receive a letter grade or elect the pass/not pass option. Freshman seminars let you... • ...explore a stimulating topic with outstanding faculty in a small group setting. • ...gain an introduction to the culture of the university. • ...get to know a professor noted for original research and commitment to teaching. • ...learn about ways to do research within your field of study in a supportive and congenial atmosphere. • ...form habits of inquiry and expression that will serve you through your academic career and beyond. Seminars are offered in a wide range of disciplines with topics varying for fall, winter, and spring quarters. Freshman seminars are normally taken for a letter grade, though students may choose the pass/not pass option. Seminars may be repeated up to three times so long as the subjects vary. Students may add or drop a freshman seminar up until the end of the second week of classes. Freshman seminars are part of a series of courses at UCI designed to introduce freshmen to the research university and to enhance the first-year experience. • University Studies 2: UCI Majors, 2 units, fall/winter quarters.
