Honors Program seeks interdisciplinary science course proposals by Sept. 1

The Honors Program is soliciting proposals for interdisciplinary science courses for Spring 2017. Colloquia and Advanced Colloquia in the Sciences are small, discussion-based courses which must meet Essential Studies goals for Math, Science, and Technology. Furthermore, all Honors Program courses should seek to meet the program goals of enhancing students’ critical and creative thinking, scholarly inquiry, communication, perspective, and civic engagement skills. This is an excellent opportunity for a faculty member to experiment with high-impact teaching practices for an undergraduate science course (accessible to any major) in a small group setting.

Please submit a course abstract, learning objectives, reading list, assessment tools, and course structure to Amanda Boyd,amanda.boyd@und.edu, Director, UND Honors Program. Salary is provided. For full consideration please submit no later than Sept. 1.
