UNIV 101/103
UNIV 101/UNIV 103 courses are two-credit seminars offered only to new Binghamton students that satisfy the university's "W" (writing) general education requirement. The UNIV course offers a blended format, team-taught by a faculty member and a professional staff member.

The team teaching format and combined components allow opportunities for students to explore and discuss the specific academic and the transition topics, utilize campus resources, develop critical thinking and writing skills and improve time management.
