The Honors College at Towson University provides
unique and challenging opportunities for the most highly qualified
and motivated students seeking intellectual and personal growth.
The Honors College involves students and faculty from across the
university in a community of scholars who together explore questions
within and beyond their disciplines. The Honors College serves,
therefore, as the center and symbol of the university's commitment
to academic excellence in the education of its undergraduates.
Honors Welcome Week
Honors College Welcome Week begins with our annual picnic on Tuesday, September 3 from 12:00 to 2:00 p.m. on Newell Field. There will be lots of people to meet, food, games and tie-dying. Be sure to check out the full Welcome Week Event Schedule so you don't miss any of the fun!
Welcome week is the perfect time to join an Honors College intramural team (seasons begin September 8) and an Honors College book club group. See the Honors College calendar of events for the full semester schedule of activities which includes workshops, trips and programs.
Students' perspectives are expanded
as they explore areas not closely related to their disciplines and
are encouraged to work in their majors with greater intensity than
would be possible within traditional curricular programs. Thus,
the Honors College provides an environment in which students develop
their skills, cultivate their talents, and achieve excellence in
academics, research, service, and individual development, leading
to professional success and personal fulfillment.
