Mission & Learning Outcomes
FYE Mission
The First Year Experience Program (FYE) at Clemson University enhances the greater missions of the Division of Student Affairs and the University through intentional and collaborative student-centered services and programs. The FYE program serves as a catalyst for campus resources, services and opportunities that promote the self-knowledge, leadership development, social responsibility and life skills awareness and application for our first-year students.
Learning Outcomes of FYE
The FYE (First Year Experience) program is structured to bridge the learning opportunities in the residence hall with those across the campus community allowing students to take full advantage of the programs designed to promote a successful transition. As a result, the FYE program will be implemented and evaluated on these learning outcomes:
- Students will demonstrate increased self-knowledge through participation in the FYE program.
- Students will gain an understanding of their role and responsibilities within a community and understand the importance of being part of a social network
- Students will identify and develop skills and strategies that enable the achievement of their academic goals.
- Students will utilize Relational Leadership in developing ethical leadership skills, communication and interpersonal skills and active engagement in leadership activities.
- Students will become agents of positive change
