Interdisciplinary Honors

There are several reasons why I decided to take Honors English, but I'll start with the one that is the most important to me, and that is college. College is something that is very important to me, and I want to be prepared for it. When I graduate I plan to attend a school out of state or preferably study abroad, possibly Germany. Unfortunately universities tend to be very expensive, especially if it is not in the state you live in. In order for me to be accepted into a top school I will need scholarships, good grades, and an impressive transcript. By taking this honors English course I hope to increase my chances at achieving my goals.

Being in honors English for my freshman year of high school would be a great opportunity to further my growth.. English is a vital, branching off of every core subjects such as Math, Science and Social Studies.Throughout my past education years , I have set my `expectations at a higher level,trying to have further knowledge of the subject. I feel that by being in Honors English, I will continue to challenge myself in ways I have never been offered by before. This course will place me in an atmosphere where I will be able to continue to work to my highest potential, with higher expectations from my teachers. I also believe being in honors English, will better prepare me for upcoming AP courses and my future college career. By perusing this

Broad perspective is critical. Without it, opportunities and possibilities are greatly limited. The Honors College is not simply a place to gain perspective, but also a place to provide perspective to others. Interdisciplinary academics, leadership development, undergraduate research, and community & global experiences are the tenets of the Honors College. My experiences are closely aligned to these views; therefore, I feel I can contribute my own

Before I started my first semester of college I made sure that my academic and career goals were set to avoid indecisiveness. One of my intellectual objectives has always been to be a part of the honors college. Deep in my heart I know I have what it takes to be in an organization of students that excel with integrity. Furthermore, the benefits that come along with being a student within the honors college can assist me with getting through my scholastic agenda which includes internships, scholarships and honorary mentions.

• How would your presence in the Honors Program help other students develop in these four areas?

The National Honors Society (NHS) is a group in which leadership, teamwork, and motivation skills are all developed, among a collection of other characteristics through various service projects. Granted these are the benefits listed on the website and not known to me through personal experience, I am certain that being apart of NHS would be beneficial to my life in preparing to enter the real, independent world and head off to college within the next few years. As a soft-spoken scholar, NHS would provide a way for me to familiarize myself in a collaborative and teamwork-filled setting that could better prepare me for jobs, as well as it would teach me to be a leader, and push me into the world to help and think about others rather than just

The Texas A&M University Honors Program is much more than an ephemeral stepping stone towards medical school for me. While I am cognizant of the fact that I would be well prepared to achieve my goals even with a non-honors diploma, I recognize that the Honors Program would be an imperative step in my academic development and success. All throughout my life I have challenged myself to work towards excellence. Whether that be in sports, school, or my relationships with those around me, I have never chosen to settle because I realized I can accomplish so much more. The Honors Program will provide me with the tools necessary to thrive in a valuable environment of perpetual competition in which I will utilize the opportunities given to me in the

I am a journalism major with a focus in public relations and a minor in marketing therefore I believe the Honors college will enhance my academic experience at Georgia State by allowing me to develop my people skills as well as my personal professional development. The honors college programs do not only provide rigorous academic programs for strong individuals to constantly feel challenged but it also provides guidance to develop individual professionalism ,and I believe both would allow me to grow as a journalism major. In addition, I know the amazing staff that the honors college provides would help me maintain my focus and personal development all four years of my undergraduate studies.

I see the National Honors Society as a volunteering and discussion opportunity with other diligent students that brings out leadership and encourages service. The one thing I am looking forward to above all others if I am selected to this group is the great privilege it will be to surround myself with other enthusiastic students. Since NHS is a group of motivated individuals I think we really need to push the students who are accepted to achieve even more than they already are and I hope I can become a member that is able to bring together the student body in order to set and achieve greater more ambitious goals within Pioneer High School and the Ann Arbor Community.

The Liberal Arts Honors at the University of Texas at Austin is one that I am greatly interested in because I believe it will push me to go further into my education, the way that National Honor Society has and the way that my brother never

I have challenged myself all throughout high school with Honors and AP classes, but I have gone beyond the classroom to further challenge myself. For instance, in the genetics-based research program, I was tasked with many scenarios in which I had to use my problem solving and reasoning skills to make the appropriate decisions for many laboratory experiments. Additionally, I had to interpret the results of the experiments in context with what I was attempting to prove through the experiment. Within my high school, I am also part of the National Honors Society through which I help the community’s schools with tutoring sessions. TCNJ’s Honors Program will allow me to continue pushing myself to the peak because of all of its challenging courses and opportunities. All throughout high school I have been challenging my academic capabilities and I wish to continue to do so as I continue to TCNJ.

An interdisciplinary study is a degree plan that allows for students to incorporate different field of studies to construct an academic field they are interested in. Throughout these studies, students are to research in understanding the knowledge of complex problems within their field of studies. Many people outside of these studies conceive that interdisciplinary is not beneficial over a single discipline. In my beliefs, interdisciplinary studies can benefit in how different fields and different approaches can intervene together. When two different fields are combined they can enhance your knowledge by using your skills in; different field approaches, hiring, and give a broader understanding of the full learning concept between two field

As I would be around many driven and highly intelligent students, I feel I will constantly be encouraged to push myself and preform to the best of my ability in all my courses. Being a part of something as incredible as the Honors College would be such a humbling and rewarding opportunity, as it would give me the chance to challenge myself in more academically rigorous and demanding courses. I have learned through the advanced classes I have taken during my high school career to welcome difficult material, as there is nothing more rewarding than putting forth effort in an arduous class and seeing it pay off. I can genuinely say that from these advanced high school courses I have developed a strong work ethic, valuable problem solving skills, and a deeper confidence in my abilities. For these reasons, I feel that being a part of the Honors College would not only be a very fulfilling experience, but also cause me to grow more as a person. I sincerely appreciate this opportunity, and I am thrilled at the chance to possibly become a part of this distinguished

Interdisciplinary studies can be recited as a degree plan that will allow students to use their knowledge from pervious field to another field study. In the textbook the authors Repko and Szostak (2017), describe interdisciplinary as studies between two or more fields of study. This can also be considered as a research study that will enhance knowledge in understanding a variety of complex situations while constructing a field study. Repko and Szostak argue that interdisciplinary should be viewed as complementary to discipline rather than a threat to them. My beliefs is that interdisciplinary can be beneficial educational path because it can combine an existing knowledge of field study to use to another new study. My interdisciplinary is Rehabilitation

On February 14, 2016, the Chronicle of Higher Education published an essay by Julio M. Ottino and Gary Saul Morson entitled “Building a Bridge Between Engineering and the Humanities.” Ottino and Morson discuss the importance of the fields of engineering and the humanities. The purpose of the essay is to show how engineering and the humanities are linked together and are needed simultaneously. Even though, Morson and Ottino adopt a weak informal tone in the middle of their argument; the authors end their argument strong by successfully using ethos and logos to appeal to their audience, college and university faculty and administrators.
