Signing up for a FIG guarantees your spot in popular lecture courses. In addition to offering great classes to students, FIGs enrich your first term at the university through the personal interaction with FIG faculty members as well as peer support from the FIG Assistant, who is a current undergraduate student that has already taken and been successful in the FIG classes. You will engage in the academic intersections of the FIG topic, and go on social outings together throughout the term! A few examples are taking a trip to the Oregon Coast, having dinner at a faculty member’s house, and movie nights.
Runways let you build your first-year around tracking down answers to big, urgent, interesting questions, and blaze a path through your Core Education requirements. You take a year-long seminar with the same professor and 23 peers, and get guaranteed spaces in popular lecture courses.
Our program offers a variety of FIGs and Runways that stem across 40 academic departments. You can browse through the FIGs and Runways by clicking on the buttons below, where you can learn more about the courses offered, who teaches the FIG/Runway, and see the schedule.
