Freshman Seminar Program

Washington State University - WA, Washington

Small groups of Washington State University first-year students “”co-enroll”" in a minimum of two courses, including required entry level courses and a freshman seminar. In the seminar courses students have a chance to meet with respresntatives from the campus and local communities. Each freshman seminar group completes a major research project based on community problems and presents their findings to the campus and local communities at a major exposition near the end of every semester.
