FYJ 0101 - First Year Journey: Academic Inquiry


Credits: 3

The First Year Journey course exposes students to an intellectual passion that they can get excited about. Students collaborate with their professor and peers to examine a particular specialization, creative interest, question, or topic in depth and from multiple points of view in order to develop college-level academic skills. Students are supported as they develop the skills needed to engage deeply and critically with complex materials; to take risks; to grow as a leader and collaborator; to reflect on strengths, passions and goals; and to begin to develop a vision for their journey through Westfield State University.
