Welcome to The Honors College!
Welcome to The Honors College!
At the Honors College, students pursue a challenging four-year curriculum designed to promote intellectual curiosity, critical thinking, and self-direction. The revised curriculum provides a humanistic and multidisciplinary foundation with opportunities for critical reflection and a focus on transdisciplinary problem-solving skills to articulate solutions to contemporary societal challenges.
The new curriculum will launch with the theme, “The Future of the Planet.” Of note, the program will offer Ideas Labs; a Social Analysis & Impact Capstone; credit for department courses, Special Topics, and Experiential Learning; and a course that brings together faculty from multiple disciplines to lecture on a select topic or issue.
