FY@broad = Focal Point Seminar + short-term study abroad.
Every year, sections of LSP 112 with a geographically-targeted, international focus participate in the FY@broad Program. Directly following the completion of the Focal Point Seminar (during spring break if it is a winter section or June if it is a Spring section), the students, under the leadership of the instructor and a trained staff professional, spend 8-12 days traveling in the region, country or city that is the focus of the course and building upon what they have already learned during the preceding quarter.
Students apply for FY@broad during the prior quarter, by November 1 for Winter courses or February 1 for Spring. Those accepted into a FY@broad course also register for a 2-credit section of ANT 397 Travel/Study. Exceptionally, students in the university's Honors Program may register for a FY@broad section of the Focal Point Seminar, for which they receive designated Honors credit. (Note that to be eligible students must have successfully completed WRD 103 or HON 100.)
Description of recent, current and upcoming FY@broad offerings may be found on the "Course Descriptions" page of this site or by going to
