Honor 8x Max Global Rom

[Martez Fields]

GlobalHonors offers students a stimulating learning environment and an innovative and experientially rich curriculum that integrates theory with practice. Connecting students to the places and people they are studying, community-engaged seminars and study away courses are taught by internationally renowned and highly invested faculty and community partners in-residence.

Open to students from all majors, the Global Honors Program (between 17-23 credits) offers unique benefits, globally themed classes, and enhanced/exclusive access to additional funded opportunities. Students in some majors should explore Major-Integrated Global Honors Pathways which will allow them to use a course in their major towards earning this distinction.

Global Honor students are encouraged to consider the benefits of the full Minor in Global Engagement (25-28 credits). Students who complete the Minor in Global Engagement with a cumulative GPA of 3.3 or higher are automatically considered for Global Honors Distinction.

The Global Honors curriculum is highly interdisciplinary. Research and experiential learning projects are driven by compelling questions that require rich diversity in academic background and lived experience. With an emphasis on depth and rigor of research, students develop expertise in areas familiar to their major, and are also able to stretch their thinking and studies to include new academic territory. Classes may include presentations, individual or group projects, research papers and peer reviews.

Our students tackle the challenges and rewards of this holistic experience as part of a close-knit cohort. They come to trust in one another's support in a way that isn't easy to reproduce in a conventional classroom setting. They also enjoy a highly individual learning process, drawing their own conclusions based upon personal areas of interest, experience, and aspiration.

First-year Global Honors students are introduced to the basic concepts of globalization and honors education through a series of core courses. These courses emphasize critical thinking and help students develop a foundational level understanding of the major themes and topics throughout the Global Honors curriculum.

*Global Honors Core Courses: Only two core courses (T GH 301, T GH 302, T GH 303) are required for Global Honors Distinction (requires 3.3 higher cumulative GPA). Students enrolled in the Minor in Global Engagement must complete all three core courses.

Second-year Global Honors students complete their final core course in fall term*, and bring their exploration of a global topic to completion through research methodology and capstone courses. During the spring, students work with a faculty advisor of their choice to complete the capstone project. As a final requirement for graduation with Global Honors, students present their work at the annual Global Engagement Conference.

**Global Honors students who complete a study abroad may opt for two credits of T GH 495 [Independent Study: Reflection Essay] for Global Honors Distinction. Students pursuing the full Minor in Global Engagement must register for 5 credits of T GH 495.

Study abroad is strongly encouraged in the Global Honors program. It is an outstanding opportunity for students to develop empathy and understanding about the topical issues and themes examined throughout the Global Honors curriculum. Students have the opportunity to substitute one core Global Honors course (T GH 301, T GH 302, or T GH 303) (up to 5 credits) through participation in a UW study abroad program. Program duration must be a minimum of 3 weeks in order to qualify for course substitution and funding opportunities offered by the Global Honors program.

The Global Honors LLC is open to both international students and Hicks Honors College upperclassmen. It offers students the ability to experience cultural exchange and to continue engaging with the honors community outside of their first year.

Unlike some other LLCs, there is no required class for Global Honors students. Instead, the community will be built through social activities, sharing cultures (especially through food!), and working together on community service projects. Students living in this community will attend events like potluck dinners featuring a variety of different food traditions, field trips to explore cultural and environmental treasures in the area, shopping trips to ethnic stores, game nights, pool parties, and other events all with a mix of Hicks Honors students and students studying at UNF from around the world.

UChicago College students are deeply engaged in activities that require the use of foreign languages and that connect them with individuals and cultures on or beyond our campus. Those activities range from taking courses to gaining certification of proficiency, to studying or interning abroad, to engaging with different cultural groups in the US and abroad, and completing language majors and minors.

As students demonstrate completion of each component, they earn points toward Global Honors. Once they qualify, they will receive the Global Honors designation on their transcript and be recognized during Convocation ceremonies at graduation. Click the link below for a comprehensive list of components.

Interested in applying for Global Honors? For the 2022 academic year, you must be a current third- or fourth-year student in the College. These students can self-enroll in the Canvas course by following these instructions. Contact global...@uchicago.edu with any questions.

Seminars combine a semester-long course with a week-long international travel component, providing students with the opportunity to integrate a global perspective into the study of an interdisciplinary, liberal arts-based topic. Fall semester seminars include January travel, and Spring semester seminars include travel during spring break.

Identified honors students, across all Steinhardt majors, will be invited to apply in the spring semester for the upcoming academic year. All seminars are 4-credits and satisfy a Steinhardt Liberal Arts Core Requirement.

Daily activities during the travel component may include lectures, discussions, site visits, and cultural activities. For Fall courses, final course assignments are due after travel in January. For Spring courses, the seminar continues to meet after spring break and incorporates the international learning experience into the continued seminar.

There is a $400 fee to be paid via credit card due upon acceptance of the program which secures your seat in a seminar, and contributes to the international travel. Steinhardt Global Affairs covers the costs of round trip airfare, accommodations, activities, some meals, and transportation within the country of the program.

Eligible candidates for global honors seminars must have a Steinhardt cumulative grade point average of 3.75 or higher and demonstrate a record of leadership, community engagement, and service. All levels are welcome to apply. Seminars are open to Steinhardt students only.

Students are required to participate in the international travel component of the seminar and fly to and from the program destination from NYC as a group, arranged by Steinhardt Global Affairs. Students are not permitted to purchase an individualized travel itinerary.

When admitted to a seminar, we will notify you of the deadline to pay the $400 program fee. You must pay this fee via credit card by the deadline provided or your seat will be offered to a student on the waitlist. If you need an extension of the deadline to pay the deposit, please request it in writing to steinhar...@nyu.edu.

Students are responsible for obtaining any necessary visa and/or immunizations that are required for their program destination. The NYU Health Center will advise on required and recommended immunizations and other healthcare precautions. Students should also consult with their personal healthcare providers on overall mental and physical wellness to ensure readiness for international travel.

In the current globalized world in which we live, employers of all types are prioritizing global and intercultural skills when hiring. As an Honors Global Scholar, you will have the opportunity to enhance those skills while in college and demonstrate them to future employers or graduate or professional schools.

Ireland is the only country in the European Union with English as its primary language and as such is an ideal site to explore a variety of global issues including politics, immigration, history, economics, sustainability, culture, and the arts.

To be considered, students must meet the priority deadline for Fall 2025 freshman applications: January 15, 2025. Incoming freshmen who plan to start in the Fall 2025 semester can find more details about applying at the link below.
