ARTS 130 and ARTS 140 are, by definition and design, transdisciplinary. Their learning outcomes pertain to all of our work in the Faculty of Arts. In addition, the success of the program depends on broad participation from across the academic disciplines within Arts. This is a Faculty-driven initiative that foregrounds transdisciplinary competencies and backgrounds discipline-specific forms of knowledge.
Each fall Faculty are invited to submit requests to teach a section of either ARTS 130 or 140 in the following academic year. Requests should first be approved by their unit or department chair, then submitted using this webform.
Full syllabi are not expected at the proposal stage.
Submissions for the 2024-2025 academic year will be accepted until January 2, 2024.
If you have questions about teaching in Arts First, please contact artsfirst@uwaterloo.ca.
Please submit a separate form for each Arts First course or topic you are requesting to teach.
