Every student is required to complete at least 30 hours of core coursework, which must include one course from each of the following categories: humanities/fine arts, math/natural science, and social/behavioral sciences. Students should consult with an advisor to ensure core requirements are satisfied.
Enrollment begins with courses in section 1, but a student may start courses in section 2 or 3 as long as at least one course in section 1 is enrolled. Specific pre-requisites are listed in the course descriptions.
Additional Flexibility
This pathway (unlike the other published pathways) does not recommend a particular timeline for core completion. In order to accommodate the scheduling exigencies of the Honors cohort, particularly for students selecting large majors, like Engineering, students enrolled in the honors program may delay taking the first four courses if they wish. They are also excused from taking the core sequences in order. That is, they may begin any sequence at any time, though they are advised to follow the sequences, as their schedule permits. Honors students must, nevertheless, take the required philosophy classes in order.
