Pathway and Coursework
We encourage all HP students to become global citizens and to pursue global engagement by coursework that counts toward the 15-credit HP curricular requirement and the 6-credit HP Pathway in Global Engagement. The HP will continue to offer a number of HP Classes with a focus on global engagement and will also authorize certain non-HP study abroad courses (up to three credits) to count toward both.
AUTHORIZATION OF NON-HP STUDY ABROAD CLASSES
To expand the HP’s capacity to encourage and recognize HP students’ global engagement coursework, students are eligible to apply to have up to three credit hours of non-HP study abroad coursework applied to the 15-credit curriculum requirement. These courses are offered by partner Georgia Tech study abroad programs and professors and deliver small, active-learning, “HP-style” learning experiences that include significant globally engaged course content.
HP students may request review and HP authorization of study abroad courses that they have already completed or that they are considering taking in an upcoming semester. To do so, please email the Honors Program with evidence that your study abroad course satisfies these criteria for HP authorization:
- Small
- Active-learning
- Globally Engaged
YOUR EVIDENCE WILL TYPICALLY CONSIST OF:
- A screen shot from the OSCAR listing for the course, showing the number of students enrolled or showing the class cap for a future course offering (for evidence that the course was/will be small); and
- The course syllabus (for evidence of significant active-learning elements, such as projects, field trips, presentations, or discussion, and of globally engaged course content, including significant learning about non-U.S. subject matter).
QUALIFYING HP CLASSES
NOTE FOR OXFORD PROGRAM STUDENTS: Honors Program students who attend the Oxford Study Abroad Program may count either MUSI 3621 or ID 2242 and their selected HP class (HTS 3032, HTS 3033, or MGT 4803) toward the HP curricular requirement and toward the HP Pathway in Global Engagement if they participate in the required supplemental activities (typically a guided tour of Oxford and a blog post).
