Honors

Students are introduced to faculty directed projects from a variety of academic fields. Student will use one of these projects, or identify a self-directed project, to complete the project component of the honors program.

In these two hour bi-weekly seminars students will make brief presentations on the nature objective and probing the nature of their individual projects and provide status updates. Students will contribute to the process of project development by evaluating the methods used to achieve a project’s objective and probing the nature and outcomes of the project using an integrative knowledge approach to critical inquiry.

Students complete all aspects of their individual project, including background research activities, submission of a final product and its public dissemination; a critical examination of the project using integrative knowledge; and lastly, a self-reflective video on the project’s value to their undergraduate experience. Students must receive a passing grade on their project to successfully complete the course. Prerequisite: Acceptance in the Honors Program.
