Interdisciplinary Honors Field Studies- Summer 2015

The Honors Program is excited to launch the Interdisciplinary Honors Field Studies Program (IHFSP) in Summer Quarter, 2016. Courses within the IHFSP demonstrate “field studies” in its broadest and most inclusive sense offering place and community based learning across a broad range of disciplines. These courses are purposefully designed to challenge students to explore interdisciplinary education through experience and create important connections between community and classroom. IHFSP courses happen domestically, providing an exciting alternative to international programs that allow students to explore the diversity and complexity of American culture, environment, and identity.

Students who wish to receive Honors Experiential Learning credit for these courses must complete the Experiential Learning Application for summer term. Unless you will be assuming a leadership role in the class, or the class has a focus in service, research is the most eligible category for Experiential Learning.

Registration for all Field Studies courses will be for Honors students only until Monday, May 1st. After 5/1, registration will be open to all UW students.

Please check out the honors website to find out more about the courses offered this summer!
