Project-based learning is a course assignment where students work for an extended amount of time investigating a real-world problem within the context of the course material.

Supplemental Instruction is unique in that it focuses on high-risk courses, rather than traditional student-support programs which focus on high-risk students.

All instructors could incorporate diversity and global issues into their course. This could include racism and discrimination, inequalities, human rights, social justice, immigration, displayed people, power and oppression.

Involvement in undergraduate research provides hand-on experience, application of course content, direct faculty interaction and peer-to-peer collaboration and cooperation.

First-Year

Experience
