These classes delve into a specific topic in detail and are capped at 18 students (classes are typically much smaller) so you really get to know your professor and classmates well. If you love to interact closely with a professor and to talk about science in a small group setting, this is your type of class. Many professors also take their seminar classes on field trips. Be aware that there is a lottery for these classes so you might not get into the one you want. Remember, you only get to take these classes as first-years so don’t miss the opportunity!
