Honors Program
As part of its academic mandate to foster human rights education at Florida State University, the Center in Spring 2007 is introducing a new Honors Program in Human Rights. This Program will allow incoming FSU Honors students to enhance their degree work by earning a 15 credit
Undergraduate Honors Certificate in Human Rights. Students in the Honors Program are eligible to apply to the Certificate Program at the beginning of their college careers, during the semester they are enrolled in the Freshman Honors Seminar on Human Rights and Crimes Against Humanity (HUM 2937, ISS 2937). During the course of their undergraduate studies, they may choose an additional three courses from the human rights curriculum at FSU. In their final year they complete a Directed Individual Study ("DIS") on a human rights topic of their own choice as a capstone senior experience. The Undergraduate Honors Certificate in Human Rights is not intended as a diploma or degree in its own right, but rather as a specially crafted enhancement to whatever FSU diploma or degree a student chooses to pursue.
