Elective courses enable students to further increase their knowledge and widen their perspectives. Courses available for elective study are found in the Minor Studies section of this Handbook or in the SEED Electives list.

SEED Electives (Skills, Experience, Employability, Discovery)
It is recommended that students take ONE (1) SEED course in each of their first two (2) semesters of study. SEED electives work with first-year core courses to create a foundation year. By exploring the contributions different disciplines make to problem-solving, students will be able to make more informed study choices in program design and their emergent career journeys.
