The University Honors Program at Seton Hall University is a team-taught interdisciplinary humanities program of six-credits in each of a student’s first four semesters, with two upper-level seminars in the third year and a senior Honors thesis in the fourth year.

The Honors Program is a challenging and rewarding augmentation to the undergraduate experience, regardless of the student’s specific major. Honors colloquia and multi-disciplinary honors seminars address perennial human questions posed across global cultures. Students study the great texts of the past with visual media, music, and information technology integrated into the curriculum. In addition to coursework, the Honors Program provides opportunities for students to attend opera, theater, museums, concerts, and other cultural events in the New York metropolitan area. Students in the Honors Program are offered the option for academic teaming in the residence halls, creating learning communities. Both students and faculty form a cohesive academic community that lasts throughout a student’s career at Seton Hall University and beyond.
