  Introductory Studies teaches preparatory classes in English, Math, and College Reading. Our goal is to prepare students for college-level reading, writing, and math tasks.  The University Honors Program offers high-achieving, enthusiastic, motivated students many of the personal and intellectual advantages of a liberal arts college within the diversity of a research university. The emphasis in these small seminar-style classes is on intensive reading and writing, and discussion in which reasoned self-expression and critical thinking are valued and rewarded. |

  Freshman Learning Communities are two or more classes that are taught together. A group of students takes the classes together. A team of faculty work together to coordinate their courses. One of the classes is a Freshman Seminar. This is small-group class taught by faculty from across academic disciplines. They provide a personal and stimulating introduction to the intellectual life of UNM. Each course is focused on a specialized or interdisciplinary topic.  In a Freshman Interest Group (FIG), students enroll in a one-credit theme-based seminar that is block scheduled with one or two classes, usually from the Core Curriculum. The weekly FIG meetings work to support academics and create bonds among students and with their mentor teachers. |
