Welcome to the Honors Sciences and the
Humanities degree program.
Humanities degree program.
The Bachelor of Arts degree in Honors Sciences & the Humanities (HSH) is designed
for capable, curious students who are pursuing a broad and challenging course of study
that will prepare them for a variety of careers and a lifetime of active citizenship.
Most university graduates change careers several times during their lives. Therefore,
this degree emphasizes portable skills such as critical thinking and problem solving
that equip students with career flexibility. HSH also leads to knowledge and skills
that qualify students for admission to graduate and professional programs, such as
law and medical schools. Students who seek a career in health professions can complete
their science requirements while pursuing the HSH major.
The HSH major allows students to shape their program of study based on their long-term
goals, while seamlessly fulfilling Honors course requirements. With completion of
an Honors thesis, HSH leads to graduation with the distinction of Highest Honors.
