The Baldwin Honors Program |
| Web Site |
http://www.drew.edu/undergraduate/academics#Honors |
| Description |
Baldwin Scholars are exceptional students with strong academic records who seek a special opportunity for independent learning, engagement and research. The honors program meets this demand by offering a challenging set of courses augmented with exclusive co- and extracurricular activities. These include the sophomore fall honors off-campus overnight, a trip underscoring an academic topic or theme; receptions, dinners or masterclasses with elite VIP speakers, like recent campus visitors Madeleine Albright and Al Gore; and regular honors gatherings with the program director for topical conversations like sustainable energy, the economy and more. Back in the classroom—and beyond—junior year focuses on a community initiative, identified and implemented on or off campus by the Baldwin Scholars themselves, which focuses on citizenship or social change, community education or an academic opportunity. The experience culminates in a capstone project during senior year. All this adds up to a challenging and rewarding experience for participants that enriches and enhances the academic culture at Drew. Above and beyond the regular challenges of an undergraduate education, the Baldwin Honors Program curriculum includes: - First year: one-credit fall honors colloquium, spring honors seminar
- Sophomore year: fall or spring honors seminar
- Junior year: participation in the community initiative
- Senior year: completion of a capstone honors thesis or project
- One additional honors course: seminar, honors-across-the-curriculum course or tutorial
