First Year Seminars in Psychology
First-year seminar (FYSM) courses are capped at 30 students and provide an opportunity for you to discuss and research topics of interest in a core subject area.
The seminars are designed to assist you in acquiring and refining the skills that are necessary for success, while also helping to smooth the transition to university life.
FYSMs are available to all incoming 1st-year BA, Bachelor of Cognitive Science, and Bachelor of Global and International Studies students. Note that you can only take one credit in FYSM courses.
