Honors Courses
Quality rather than quantity separates Honors courses from the non-Honors curriculum. While the work requirements in an Honors course may involve larger and harder assignments than would be given in other courses in the University, the goal of the Honors curriculum is to encourage the student to extract more intellectual value out of the work that is assigned rather than simply to do more assigned work.
