Overview of Strategies

Strategy 1

First Year Experience (FYE) Class

Western Michigan University, like many other colleges, offers a list of courses designed specifically for first year students. These First Year Experience (FYE) classes are designed to connect new students to faculty, staff, student leaders and peers to facilitate their success. Additionally, this two credit course provides great opportunities for students to explore their personal interests and discover the available student organizations that are pursuing these innitiatives at a professional level. A full description of these courses and curriculum can be found here (http://wmich.edu/fye/firstyear-seminar.html). As an already existing course that accesses the majority of freshman, this is a very attractive opportunity to instill and promote the values of innovation and entrepreneurship at WMU.
