Student Experiences
Enriching Programs for Undergraduate Students
Dietrich College offers outstanding undergraduate students the opportunity to acquire advanced humanistic and quantitative skills and experiences through interdisciplinary honors programs. As communities of scholars, participants explore humanistic inquiry and human behavior in a technology-rich environment.
Humanities Scholars Program
In fall 2024, the Humanities Scholars Program (HSP) reintroduced a living-learning model in which a small group of scholars develop a shared intellectual curiosity by living together their first year. Under the direction of Therese Tardio , HSP students take a seminar class together each semester for their first two years and participate in a research seminar during their final semester. HSP expands opportunities for students to learn outside of the classroom through events and outings in addition to providing support for experiential learning and research opportunities. Tandri Einarsson (DC 2024) developed foundational skills for research in the humanities and pursued a capstone history project on the regulation of railroads and Wall Street. Through the project, Einarsson interacted with faculty representing law, economics, political science and social history.
“ Engaging with such a wide array of highly accomplished scholars during my undergraduate career was such an enriching experience that would not have been possible without the support of the HSP. ” —Tandri Einarsson
