Lewis Honors College

Credit(s): 3

Honors Social Sciences courses vary in topic by professor and are announced prior to course registration. The courses engage students in the exploration of relationships between individuals and society and how scholars have come to understand these relationships using conceptual models and processes of inquiry. This interdisciplinary course will focus on the subjective, communal, and structural aspects of society, with the goal of helping students to critically enhance their understanding of the complex and diverse phenomenon that is human social life. These courses employ Honors pedagogy by inviting students to be active collaborators in knowledge construction through class discussion, engagement with peer-reviewed literature, innovative or experimental projects and active participation in the research process (including data collection and analysis, and/or extensive literature review and synthesis). May be repeated up to six hours under a different subtitle. This course fulfills UK Core requirement for Intellectual Inquiry in the Social Sciences.

Prereq: Lewis Honors students only.
