FYE Mission Statement and Learning Outcomes
 

Mission Statement 

The mission of the First Year Experience Program (FYE) at Clemson University is to enhance the greater missions of the Division of Student Affairs and the University through student centered services and programs.  The FYE program will serve as a springboard to campus resources, services and opportunities that promote personal growth and academic success. 

Learning Outcomes

The FYE (First Year Experience) program is structured to bridge the learning opportunities in the residence hall with those among 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 the knowledge and value of campus resources, services and opportunities by utilizing them to aid  in a successful transition to the campus community.
  • Students will gain an understanding of their role and responsibilities within a community and understand the importance of being part of a sustainable society.  
  • Students will identify and develop skills and strategies that enable the achievement of their academic goals.
  • Students will develop an awareness of self as it relates to interacting with others in their community.
  • Students will gain skills that support their interpersonal growth and development.
