Many academic departments regularly offer smaller, focused honors sections of required courses with smaller enrollments. Faculty may also submit proposals to create a new honors course. Even non-honors courses can be "honorized" with the CHC honors contract.
Before they officially begin their
Clemson careers, many honors students participate in EUREKA!, a mentored
research program in which eligible faculty are paired with incoming
freshmen for the last several weeks of summer. Once on campus, honors
students seek opportunities to conduct research with faculty across all
disciplines, and many of them end up presenting their work at
conferences or being published.
Top faculty are able to work with top
Clemson students in the honors college in a host of ways: Dixon Fellows
Program. Mentoring with major fellowships. Supervising departmental
honors. As the Calhoun Honors College continues to develop new faculty-
and student-driven programs, there will be even more ways to offer
service to the University.
The Calhoun Honors College proudly presents the Bradbury Award each year to a faculty member who has made outstanding contributions to the honors program.
If you are interested in developing a course, offering a research experience to students or otherwise contributing to the Calhoun Honors College, email CHC director Dr. Bill Lasser.
