The purpose of this course is to prepare exploratory track students to achieve academic success at UMass. The curriculum will assist students with major exploration and declaration, create strategies for academic success, transition to campus life and learn how to effectively navigate and utilize campus resources. To achieve these goals students will engage in reflective self-assessments and connect with faculty, staff and peers to learn more about academic options and opportunities at UMass and skills to develop to be successful at UMass and beyond.

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 the topic: Connecting Health and Society. What does it mean to be a part of a broader community, and what can we ask of our neighbors when we need them to protect our health? Where are the lines between individual responsibility and the community?
