FYS-130 First Year Seminar in Science
This course will serve as an introduction to scientific reasoning, providing students an opportunity to practice posing thoughtful questions, evaluating evidence, and forming hypotheses. Each seminar will focus on a particular topic within science, and students will use exploration of that topic to develop the critical thinking, reading, and writing skills that are necessary for success within the discipline of science. The seminar will also involve reflection on their own learning, habits of successful students and scientists, and how to access campus resources.
