The John Duns Scotus Honors Program

Challenge Yourself, Inspire Others

The Honors Program at USF offers an intellectually challenging, yet highly rewarding experience for undergraduates of all disciplines. Appropriately named after John Duns Scotus, the Scottish theologian and philosopher who, along with St. Bonaventure, established the Franciscan Intellectual Tradition, the Honors Program:

• Blends academic rigor with community service
• Models leadership and civic engagement
• Forms a vibrant community of student and faculty scholars

Not to be confused with being on the Dean’s List or graduating “with honors,” the Honors Program is for students who want to take their USF experience to the ultimate level. Honors students work independently and strive for academic excellence.

The Honors program curriculum (link to academic plan) includes 11 credit hours from the
following courses:

• Great Books Foundations I and II
• Honors Seminar
• Honors Capstone
• Honors Independent Study
• Plus 2 additional credits from the Independent Study or the Great Books Seminar

Honors students wear the Honors cord at commencement, and the accomplishment is noted on their transcripts. Admission to the Honors program is competitive.
