Course Offerings
All credit hours earned
in courses designated as having an honors component (H designated) can be used to fulfill general education core requirements.
The two honors forums are electives.
Course Differences
The workload
in most honors courses is not significantly greater than a non-honors course. The difference lies in the types of materials
assigned, the quality of class discussions, and the ability to work independently.
Honors courses allow intellectually motivated
students to investigate ideas and search for solutions. This freedom of academic pursuit engages the honors student and makes
the classroom an avenue for active interchange of intellectual concepts rather than a place of static imparting of information..
If this material describes the academic approach that best suits your learning style and piques your interest, then the Fran
Coulter honors program may be right for you.
