What Does Every 100-Level UF Course Have in Common?

Each 100-level UF course is designed to help you become a more active and expert learner as you investigate and communicate about important ideas that affect everyone.

In your 100-level UF course, you will further develop two complex skills that successful students continue to sharpen throughout college and life: critical inquiry and oral communication.

The Foundations of Intellectual Life

100-level UF courses are academically challenging three credit courses that offer entering students a combination of large general sessions (about 100 students) paired with small-format breakout discussion sections (about 25 students).

No matter what 100-level UF course you take, you engage in college-level inquiry by investigating an important topic directly connected to the world around us. You will analyze information sources, engage in problem solving, develop presentations, and practice oral communication.

The course topics we offer differ by instructor and change each semester. Discover the 100-level UF courses that will be offered in an upcoming semester by searching the course schedule in your myBoiseState student center.
