| ABOUT THE PROGRAM: | The MSUM Honors Program provides excellent teaching, mentorship, and long-term intellectual development to academically advanced students seeking an interdisciplinary liberal arts program. Emphasizing the development of the student’s unique worldview and intellectual potential, the program focuses the student’s academic talent through small classes that motivate thinking across disciplines. Students begin with a core curriculum, the Honors Foundation, including Honors sections of Foundation Four courses. Building upon this solid foundation, the Honors Colloquium develops students’ analytical, logical, and critical reading skills and is structured to encourage open discussion of current issues and broadly interdisciplinary intellectual themes. The Honors seminars enable students to refine their intellectual skills across a range of disciplines. The senior Capstone Experience enables students to extend skills and abilities developed over the course of their experience, writing intellectual and/or professional theses that integrate their disciplinary major with their interdisciplinary training. |
