University Honors Program members make the most of their academic experience by designing an individualized Honors Advisory Program. The Innovation Track is a structured opportunity for honors students to work in interdisciplinary teams on a yearlong capstone project that focuses on one or more of the humanitarian challenges in the United National 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) which include poverty, gender equality, clean water, affordable clean energy, responsible consumption, and quality education.
Like the College Track, honors students needs to complete two honors seminars, two honors courses, and a capstone project. For the Innovation Track, students will take:
- Honors course 1: LD ST 3700H (or an approved course)
- Honors course 2: ENGL 3020H/3090H/3140H (or an approved course)
- Two seminars from the Innovation Track List
- HON 4900B: Independent Study: Innovation Pathway (1 credit, fall; 3 credits, spring)
The Innovation Track Program of Study can be found here. For questions, please contact the Honors Student Engagement Specialist, Erin Todey (eftodey@iastate.edu).
