Our office coordinates all aspects of the undergraduate experience, with a particular focus on integrating the academic, residential, social and co-curricular facets of student life. Current priorities include enhancing faculty/student interaction, diversity issues, and improving communication with and about undergraduates.

Programs

The Bass Society of Fellows is a group of Duke faculty members who have achieved recognition for excellence in both research and teaching.

The Duke Chautauqua Series brings distinguished professors into first-year dormitory commons rooms for educational and entertaining conversations about their expertise.

DukeImmerse is a semester-long program in which all courses are small seminars, interdisciplinary and build on a single theme.

The Faculty-in-Residence Program is one of the ways in which Duke facilitates and strengthens interaction between professors and undergrads outside the classroom. The program, which is sponsored jointly by our office and the Division of Student Affairs , places diverse faculty members in residence halls.

FLUNCH was started by the Duke Student Government (DSG), in partnership with Student Affairs and the Office of Undergraduate Education, and provides an opportunity for undergraduates to take their professors to lunch.  The hope is that students will use this opportunity to establish lasting relationships with faculty members they might not have developed in the classroom.  Each student's allotment of FLUNCH funds will be capped at $100 per semester. As always, each undergraduate student may host no more than 2 FLUNCHes per semester.  FLUNCH is not available during this summer but will be back when classes start this fall.

The Winter Forum is an intensive two-and-a-half day conference for undergraduates that focuses on a global issue. A joint venture between the Office of Undergraduate Education and the Provost's office, the annual forum brings students into direct contact with professors, grad students, experts and policymakers.
