Honors News and Updates
Secure Your Spot: Fall 2025 Honors Course Registration
While Fall 2025 may seem far off, we encourage you to register for your Honors courses as early as possible. Classes tend to fill quickly, so submitting your Course Registration Form soon will help ensure you get into your preferred classes. Before registering, log into your eSantaFe account to check for any holds that might delay your registration. Taking care of this now will help you avoid complications later.
As a reminder, Honors students must earn at least 30 Honors Points each semester. The easiest way to do this is by enrolling in Honors courses — you’ll earn 10 points per credit hour upon successful completion.
Honors courses are available in subjects including Communications, Social and Natural Sciences, Mathematics, Humanities, and Electives, and are designed for smaller class sizes, deeper learning, and more interactive experiences. These courses may feature special topics or enriched versions of existing classes, and students are expected to take initiative and commit time outside of class to succeed.
Review the Fall 2025 Honors Courses Catalog and prepare to make your selections!
New for Fall 2025: Honors Ethics and Technology
Course Number: PHI2930, Section 0H1
Department: Humanities
Degree Requirement: Elective
Schedule: Monday and Wednesday, 1:00pm - 2:15pm
This Fall, join us Professor Marin Smillov for our first ever course focused on Ethics of Technology. We’re constantly faced with the need to consider the ethical implications of unchecked innovation, but it feels like this question is more pertinent than ever. Excited to join the discussion around technology, AI, and ethics? just file a registration request today!
Why take PHI 2930 Ethics of Technology?
It is impossible to overstate the role of technology in our lives. In the course of evolution, humans have survived by relying on technology. This course will examine the ethical issues arising from the technological development throughout human history. The course will challenge the students by revealing many unexpected problems arising from technological changes. Students will discover the origins of many inventions and will learn interesting details about them. In addition, the course will provide the much-needed ethical reflection on the responsible applications of technology. Most inventors tend to have tunnel vision and focus exclusively on the positive consequences of their discoveries, ignoring any negative side effects. The course will offer some theoretical background while empowering students to evaluate ethical problems and to form enlightened views. We will examine the recent advances in electronic technology, resulting in the proliferation of social media and AI. The course will help students gain a deeper understanding of electronic technology and abandon the role of passive consumers. This course will provide a fact-based assessment of the complex relationship between humanity and technology.
