Fall 2023 FIGs

We offer more than 50 FIGs every fall – each with a unique combination of courses. Many FIGs explore similar ideas, so they are grouped into larger common themes in order to help you narrow down your choice. When selecting a FIG, be sure to look for themes or classes that seem most interesting to you. 

Our list of FIGs has been updated to reflect what will be offered Fall 2023. FIGs are subject to change based on department class offering changes, and more FIGs may be added in the summer!
