The Rodman Seminars Program allows Rodman Scholars to take part in learning
experiences without the formality of a traditional class. Its purpose is to allow scholars to explore
interesting and useful topics to complement their academic education, or just for the joy of learning.
Recently, student-led seminars were introduced to allow scholars to learn from each other and
share their knowledge about topics they are passionate about.
The student instructors’ experience in the topic, commitment and interest in leading the
seminar, and the development of the syllabus will be taken into consideration in this application.
