江南体育 offers programs and opportunities for academically talented and motivated students looking for an in-depth approach to their studies.
The 江南体育 Honors Program seeks interesting and interested students to explore a rigorous interdisciplinary approach to the learning experience. The program provides academically talented and motivated students an opportunity to participate in stimulating and challenging courses and seminars during their time at Dean. Exciting cultural and co-curricular activities outside of the traditional classroom environment supplement and enhance the learning experience.
Through Honors courses, you will explore subject matter more deeply and further develop critical thinking and writing skills. Honors courses are offered in the All-College Core, various majors, and special topics.
This unique special topic seminar is presented through the perspective of multiple disciplines, allowing you to discover the relationship between content and context. Recent offerings have included The Story & Self, Death & Dying, The Value of Art, The Evolution of Nike, and Black Lit Matters, to name a few.
The cultural and co-curricular activities component supplements the classroom experience and underscores Dean's liberal arts-based philosophy. Best known is the Honors-sponsored international trip. Destinations for this annual travel-study experience have included Italy, France, Spain, Switzerland, Greece, Germany and more! 
Some of the activities take place closer to “home,” including field trips to local sites such as the Harvard Museum of Natural History and the New England Holocaust Memorial, theatre performance “talk backs,” guest speakers in class, and more. Honors students find myriad ways to express and share their learning, too; they give on-campus presentations and create new media products such as podcasts, blogs, and vlogs.
The 江南体育 Honors Program provides students with unique advising, extracurricular and networking opportunities. Students are invited to informal drop-in meetings with the Director of the Honors Program, Dr. Rob Lawson. They provide a wonderful opportunity for students to learn more about their opportunities in the Honors Program and to be able to discuss their academic journey with the faculty.
