Benjamin Franklin Seminars
Benjamin Franklin Seminars are small, in-depth courses with a heavy focus on class discussions, readings from primary sources and paper writing. While most of these seminars are taught by faculty in the School of Arts and Sciences, seminars are also offered by faculty from the other schools, including Wharton, Medicine, Engineering and Law. The Benjamin Franklin Scholars program offers approximately fifty of these seminars each year.
Students who are members of the Benjamin Franklin Scholars program have automatic access to these seminars; however, any undergraduate may enroll in a Benjamin Franklin Seminar. While most are introductory, they may be taken at any time. For a current list, please see the website.
Class of 2010 and Later may count two Benjamin Franklin seminars or one Benjamin Franklin seminar and one Freshman Seminar toward the Sector Requirement.
