    First Year Seminars THE UNIVERSITY OF NORTH CAROLINA AT CHAPEL HILL FALL 2013 First Year Seminars For Your Success! FALL 2013 How can you make the best transition to college and share the excitement of Carolina’s intellectual life? Students and faculty agree: enroll in a First Year Seminar. Carolina’s First Year Seminars (FYS) Program provides a unique academic opportunity within our broader curriculum. FYS are small (no more than 24 students), taught by our best instructors, and address topics that are on the frontier of scholarship or research. FYS give you the opportunity to work together with faculty and classmates in a shared experience that provides a hands-on preview of the exciting world of engaged scholarship at Carolina. FYS are “regular courses” in the sense that they are one semester in duration, offered in the fall and spring, provide 3 credit hours, and meet General Education HILL requirements. FYS go beyond “regular courses” in their emphasis on active learning, which usually includes class discussion and other modes of engagement such as CHAPEL - fieldwork, artistic performances, class trips, presentations, projects, or experiments. UNC FYS also help refine your ability to communicate clearly and persuasively in a wide , array of formats. And, perhaps most important, FYS are designed to be lively and SEARS fun, promoting collaboration in scholarship and intellectual discovery. DAN BY plan ahead PHOTO Many students are attracted by the FYS that are directly relevant to their interests, but this strategy is a bit shortsighted because all students will eventually enroll in A note from Drew Coleman advanced courses in their major.
