Intro to Your Undergrad
What is university like? How much will I need to study? What can I expect from my lectures, tutorials, and labs? How will I talk to my profs? What can I do with my degree? The Colleges present: a Q and A with first-year profs (we will even ask them about their failures!), along with an intro to YOUR undergrad. Learn how to plan your degree with Academic Advisors, how to study during your degree with Academic Skills, and how to use your degree to build career opportunities with Careerspace. Begin your academic journey with your best foot forward!
