What kinds of Honors courses are offered to freshmen?
Honors sections of many general education courses are offered each semester. These courses meet requirements across colleges and within disciplines. The enrollment limit, always lower than in other general education sections, in most cases does not exceed twenty-five students. This gives you many opportunities to interact with your peers and participate in class discussions. Honors-eligible students are notified by mail and/or e-mail every semester when course descriptions are available online. Current course descriptions are available by clicking on “Honors Courses” above. Sometimes Honors courses are thematically connected, so that you share a schedule with all the members of the class. For example, during the fall a learning community offers Honors students opportunities for integrated learning: “Perspectives In Science” including ENGL 105, CHEM 201 and 207/208.
