Interdisciplinary Studies

The Leadership Studies course provides an opportunity to explore classical and contemporary theories of leadership. Studies will practice a scholarly examination of leadership theory, philosophies of leadership, and moral and ethical responsibilities related to leadership through experiential exercises, films, and readings.

This capstone course is a culmination of the knowledge and skills gained through coursework, experiential learning, and enrichment opportunities students have experienced in two years of honors education. Students will polish the skills gained in other courses and create a showcase of their previous learning that will prepare them for their future education endeavors.

This course is a seminar/discussion course designed to provide an opportunity for the student to conduct an in-depth investigation of selected topics.
