Seminars bring Honors students together to read contemporary works in a variety of disciplines. An intensive exploration of a specialized academic or professions topic creates the program. The program's objective is to perfect the student's talent for business leadership. Admission to these programs is by invitation or application. They enable undergraduates to complete both the bachelor's and master's degree program in the fields of English, business, chemistry, biochemistry and human resources within five years.
Students elect to enter the program after their sophomore year.
