What are the differences between a regular FYE course and INTD 1784, the Honors First-Year Seminar?
INTD 1784 is available ONLY for Honors students. It meets twice a week. One day per week it is taught by a full-time faculty member, selected from among the best professors at UConn. On this day the class revolves around a theme of the professors choosing. At least twenty different themes are offered each year, with choices that appeal to students of every interest. On the second day the class is taught by upper class Honors student facilitators. On this day, the class focuses on transition to college issues, such as mentoring, selecting courses and majors, and balancing school work and social life.
