Honors Courses

These courses are restricted to students formally enrolled in the Honors College or others admitted by permission of the Honors director after consultation with the course instructor.

Honors sections of university studies courses: Each semester several honors sections of university studies courses will be offered on a rotating basis. These sections are usually restricted to 20 students to allow for enhanced student-faculty interaction and discussion.

Honors Seminars: Three kinds of honors seminars are offered each year. HON 110  is a three-hour interdisciplinary course designed to introduce all freshman honors students to the college experience by direct involvement in research, service, and leadership activities. This course may not be repeated for additional credit. HON 120  and HON 121  are one-hour enrichment seminars that encourage students to explore topics of interest that are often outside their major. The courses can include opportunities for additional campus/community engagement while also learning about new topics and ideas to enhance the academic programs of our students. HON 210 , HON 211 , and HON 212  are three-hour interdisciplinary seminars that offer in-depth investigations of a special topic using the approaches of several disciplines. These courses may be repeated under different subtitles. For a listing of these seminars, see the Course Descriptions  section of this catalogue.
