Course Description

The Engineering Honors Program manages three Honors Seminar courses - ENGR 230, 330, and 430.

ENGR 230 (Honors Seminar I) provides the foundation for participation in the Engineering Honors Program. Students explore potential Honors capstone focus areas, reflect on individual academic growth and create a plan for development in several engineering core competency areas. Students work in small groups while participating in reflective and integrative learning exercises. Students engage in open dialogue on topics relevant to the engineering discipline.

ENGR 330 (Honors Seminar II) develops interpersonal and intrapersonal qualities that are essential tools for success as an engineer. Students further their understanding of strengths, consider values in the context of ethical decisions, deepen their understanding of social identity and privilege and develop a clear personal vision and leadership philosophy.

ENGR 430 (Honors Seminar III) supports integrative learning for students in the final year of the Engineering Honors Program. Students integrate learning from previous educational experiences to develop lifelong learning skills and prepare to contribute to the fields of science and engineering. Students provide mentorship to lower-division students on the creation of a personal development plan.
