Faculty

UF Quest is an ambitious project for enhancing all four years of the undergraduate experience. All Quest courses are cross-disciplinary, organized around critical and metacognitive thinking, and grounded in meaningful student-faculty engagement. Quest invites students to grapple with intellectual, social, and real-life questions that they will face as critical, creative, and self-reflective adults navigating a complex and interconnected world
