Our Mission

The University Honors Program (UHP) is a highly selective interdisciplinary program that provides the educational foundations in the liberal arts of a student's undergraduate career through the majors to a bachelor's degree.  It is distinguished by its small classes and student-centered pedagogy. The UHP invites creative topics from instructors. Students and faculty alike benefit from the excitement of trying educational innovations.

Its classes promote discussion, cooperative learning, and independent exploration. The learning community is strengthened by the Honors Club and the option of living on an Honors residential floor.
