The Honors Experience
Bringing together students from across the university, Honors classrooms are interdisciplinary intersections of curiosity. Honors educational experiences typically include in-class and extracurricular activities that are measurably broader, deeper or more complex than comparable higher education learning experiences. The Honors classroom fosters a learner-directed environment, encouraging students to see themselves as contributing agents to their education. Often, Honors enables inventive and experiential education practices that would be difficult or impossible to implement in the traditional classroom.
The South Carolina Honors College is able to accomplish this creative approach to education by working with the very best faculty and instructors from across USC. Check out a recent story on one of our award-winning Honors faculty!
