First Year Seminar 191PHHS14 - FYS-U-Thrive: SPHHS

This seminar will support your transition to college and introduce you to a topic in public health and health sciences. The first six weeks will provide foundational skills for students to thrive at UMass. The last seven weeks will focus on exploring a public health and health sciences topic.

First-year (R1ST) Course subtitle: Guinness World Records, Big Goals, and You

Through the core concepts of kinesiology (exercise training, hydration, nutrition, recovery, etc.), students will explore effective goal setting and how to achieve big, long-term goals. Each student will choose their own big goal and flip the overall concepts of kinesiology and goal setting to make them applicable to their individual goal (which does not need to be kinesiology related).
