Is a seminar one year-long course or two separate, one-semester courses?
Each Montserrat seminar extends over the entire year, but there might be a different emphasis from semester to semester. Some seminars are team taught by professors from different disciplines, alternating semesters and providing contrasting perspectives on a topic. For example, for a seminar in Global Society on environmental sustainability, the fall semester could be devoted to an exploration into energy conservation by a physics professor, while the spring semester, led by a religious studies professor, could focus on issues of stewardship. Many other seminars are taught as a year-long sequence by a single professor. The seminar descriptions available at registration make clear the format and structure of each course.
