The Undergraduate Semester in Dialogue provides a unique opportunity to affirm the role of a university to educate students into productive, creative, well-balanced, thoughtful, and reflective members of society.
The full time, one term, 15 credit Undergraduate Semester in Dialogue will provide intensive mentoring, strong emphasis on communication skills, an ability to think critically and evaluate effectively, a perspective that encourages discipline bridging, and an opportunity to learn from, and network with, stimulating and accomplished individuals from off-campus.
Each term’s program will consist of a core course (DIAL 390W) that will be similar for each offering, and individual topics varying with each offering that are focussed on a subject that encourages broad interdisciplinary approaches (DIAL 391W and 392W).
Admission to the program will be by application. Students should consult with their department prior to their Dialogue term to determine the application of DIAL units to fulfil major, minor or elective course requirements. All three courses must be completed simultaneously. Prospective students should apply eight months prior to the Dialogue program in which they wish to participate. Admission decisions will be made no later than four months prior to program start. A course outline for each offering of DIAL 390W, 391W and 392W will be available prior to the application deadline.
Admission Requirements
Students must have completed 45 units prior to beginning the Dialogue program. Individual courses may have other prerequisites. Application forms, information about course content, and other information are available from the program office.
These courses also are eligible to fulfil electives in post baccalaureate diploma programs.
