First-year Seminar Program and Senior Seminar Program - Spring Quarter 2025 Proposals

I am writing to encourage your participation in the First-year and Senior Seminar Programs during Spring Quarter 2025. 

The due date for the submission of seminar proposals is Friday, Nov. 1, 2024.  

Eligible faculty will receive a $1,500 research payment (not as salary, but as funding available to support various academic expenses including research, travel, and supplies) for teaching either a one-unit First-year Seminar or a one-unit Senior Seminar. A department may only offer Senior Seminars if it also offers at least two First-year Seminars in the same quarter.  The $1,500 research payment is only provided if a minimum of 10 students are enrolled in the seminar.

Proposals can be submitted on the First-year and Senior Seminar Programs & Guidelines webpage.

Feel free to contact me (DUE@ucsd.edu) or April Burcham (aburcham@ucsd.edu) if you have any questions about the seminar programs.
