HNR 102First-Year Honors Psychology3
This integrative analysis of the theories and methodology of contemporary psychology pays particular attention to an understanding of human problems and behavior. Social Science Core Course
Honors Ethics is a writing-intensive, multidisciplinary seminar that emphasizes (1) the development of logical, rhetorical, and reading skills necessary to understand argument structure, and (2) the theoretical and practical aspects of moral philosophy, including selected ethical theories. The primary aim of this course is to develop effective reading, writing, and critical thinking skills as well as to become a more reflective individual. Students explore fundamental ethical questions and gain a framework which they can use to think through ethical issues that confront them as human beings, responsible citizens, and emerging leaders in a global community. Through a study of a variety of ethical approaches, students explore the meaning of self and society, and reflect on the compatibility of faith and reason with specific reference to the Catholic Franciscan intellectual and spiritual tradition. Philosophy [PHIL102] Core Course
This integrative, multidisciplinary analysis focuses on the social, economic, political, and intellectual factors that influenced the evolution of American society during the 19th and 20th centuries. History Core Course
This overview course presents a foundation in theology by introducing students to Scripture and the basic tenets of Christian faith. Personal introspection on how spirituality can and does play a role in students’ lives is encouraged by placing an emphasis on critical thinking, theological reflection, and the centrality of community. The course examines core Christian themes through the lens of the Franciscan tradition and scripture. These themes include images of God, creation, social justice, Christology, the Reign of God, sacraments and the Church. Religious experience and its varied expressions are not best studied in the abstract. Given the Catholic, Franciscan orientation of Neumann University, that tradition will be the foundation for our investigation of key themes and questions of religion. This having been said, the course presupposes no particular religious background. Students of all religious beliefs are invited to think critically about those beliefs and are encouraged to bring their views forward in the classroom. The primary structure of the course will be that of a seminar. Students are expected to assume leadership in achieving course learning outcomes.
This integrative, multidisciplinary analysis includes an introduction to the elements of music, a survey of selected musical styles, and an examination of the connections between music and other aspects of human experience. Fine Arts Core Course

This general research and composition course emphasizes purposeful and flexible responses to a variety of writing contexts and conventions. Students research issues with multiple viewpoints and write a variety of research-based essays. Students will develop writing processes and skills that are foundational for communication and collaboration in academic and professional environments. The course assignments will be designed around a theme or a topic relevant to each student’s field of study. Equivalent to ENG 102, a required English Writing Core Course
