Honors Seminar: Global Engagements

Catalog description

We live in a connected world and our worldviews affect us at multiple scales, from individual standards of morality to law and economics to interactions among nations. Students in this seminar will use interdisciplinary knowledge to engage with complex global issues and events from multiple viewpoints. The particular topics may change from one semester to the next, but each offering will examine some aspect of human thought, behavior, or culture that varies across the globe, whether at individual, cultural, or national scale. Students will be expected to participate in lively discussions, and through mentored contrast and comparison, broaden their understanding of who we are, and who we can be.
