Honors Courses
Classes designed exclusively for students of outstanding academic ability are the core of the UW Oshkosh UHP. In Honors courses, students work closely with instructors and with each other, and whenever possible, independent research is encouraged. Honors classes are small, allowing stimulating exchanges between professors and students and coverage of material in greater depth.
The enhanced undergraduate curriculum emphasizes reading, writing, and interactive communication skills through discussions and projects. Honors courses also allow students to engage in learning and research in close cooperation with other high-achieving students.
Most Honors classes are Honors versions of general education courses. Several are specific to Honors only, such as the first-year and senior seminars and Culture Connection I and II. The UHP is always working on developing new courses at all levels of the curriculum.
