‌Fall 2019 Seminars

‌‌J-Term 2020 Seminars

Spring 2020 Seminars

Scholars register for most seminars the same as they would for any other course.  Experimental seminars are taught by one faculty member, are limited to 8 students, and students enrolled in the seminar must come from various majors.  Registration for experimental seminars is a manual process and students must receive approval from the instructor; students who wish to register for a seminar that has only one instructor must contact that instructor directly to receive authorization to enroll in the course.

These honors seminars will be offered in upcoming terms:
