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.

Approximately 700 students from all academic colleges and major departments participate in the Honors College. Professors from a variety of disciplines are selected to lead small Honors classes which encourage interdisciplinary, multiple pedagogies, student involvement, creativity, open discussion, as well as independent critical thinking.

Honors Curriculum and Courses

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.
