Types of Honors Courses at Eastern
- Honors sections of regular courses:
These courses are selected from the general education curriculum. In
general, they cover the same material as non-honors sections. Additional
reading or writing assignments, presentations or group projects may
be required. Tests may be essay rather than multiple-choice. The primary
difference is that expectations are higher.
- Enriched options within regular courses:
Honors students are enrolled in the same section as non-honors students.
Honors students complete extra assignments/projects. These courses may
be either general education or courses from the major area of study.
- Special Honors courses:
At Eastern, honors students enroll each fall in SOC 1221 (2221 for sophomores),
a seminar class that examines social issues. In addition, they are required
to complete SOC 2313, a leadership class. Enrollment in these classes
is limited to honors students.
