Honors Core Curriculum
There are two ways to receive Honors credit for courses:
1. The Honors Seminar Curriculum is carefully designed to provide students with a high-quality, well-integrated, two-year program of rigorous classes that satisfy general education transfer requirements and are limited to no more than 25 students. Honors Seminar courses are open to students who are currently members of the Honors Program. Students who are not yet members of the Program, but are considering Honors membership, can enroll in these Seminar courses but must contact the Honors Director first. Honors students should make it a priority to take Seminar courses instead of Contract courses! The Honors Seminar courses are listed below:

2. Students can also receive Honors credit for courses through a Contract System. For information about the seminar courses and contract courses, please contact the Honors Director and have a look at the brochure that is located in the "Forms" section of this site. The following courses are available for contract (remember, it is at the discretion of the instructor teaching the individual section of the course to enter into a contract with you):
| ANTH-3, ART-2, ART-4, ASTRO-10, ASTRO-30, CHEM-2, CINE-1, ENGL-10, ENGL-17, ENGL-18, ENGL-1A, ENGL-1B, ENGL-20, ENGL-22, ENGL-32, ENGL-47, ENGL-61 , ENGL-60, ENVSC-10, ENVSC-11, HIST-9, MATH-15, MUSIC-10, POLSC-10, PSYCH-1, SOC-10, SOC-2, SOC-5 |
