One of the many innovations occurring at Otterbein is the launch of our comprehensive First Year Experience Program. This program will aim to reach all aspects of a first year student’s experience at Otterbein. One of the signature components of the program will be the First Year Seminar. We envision these seminars to be an invigorating tool to introduce students to college level academic work, but also the unique nature of the Integrative Studies program and their overall Otterbein education.
Faculty interested in developing and teaching a First Year Seminar should contact Kate Lehman at klehman@otterbein.edu. The links below provide basic information and resources to guide the development process.
