How To Apply

Honors Program at Brookdale

Engaging classes: Have you ever imagined a classroom buzzing with vibrant discussions, where your voice matters as much as your textbooks? Welcome to the Honors program at Brookdale, where learning isn’t just about absorbing information but about actively engaging with it.

Deeper discussions: In our Honors courses, you won’t just sit back and listen to lectures. Instead, you’ll be part of dynamic discussions and take on leadership roles in the classroom. It’s all about diving deeper into subjects and really understanding them.

Resource connections: But it doesn’t stop there. We also make use of resources both on campus and in the community to give you a broader perspective. You’ll get to see how different disciplines connect and learn from a variety of viewpoints.

Critical thinking: One exciting part of our program is the capstone projects. This is your chance to create something unique—a research paper or project that integrates different ideas and sources. It’s not just about memorizing facts; it’s about thinking critically and coming up with innovative solutions.

So, if you’re ready for a learning experience that goes beyond the ordinary, join us in the Honors program at Brookdale. Let’s explore, discover, and grow together!
