You can freely choose two or three courses to take as electives. A provisional list of courses from which you can choose for the first semester is given below. (Most of the courses are 100-level major courses, and therefore (depending on the subject) could count towards your major later on.)
The remaining four or five courses in your first-year programme are filled with Academic Core courses on subjects such as academic English, mathematics (such as research methods and statistics, or calculus and algebra), and logic, information flow and argumentation. You take a course in a foreign language as part of the Academic Core in your first year, and a course called 'Identity and Diversity in a Global City.'
