About the Program
We know we're different than other honors colleges. Here's why we do it our way: Which would you rather be: someone who accepts external formulas without question and applies them in decision-making, or someone who determines their own compass and makes judgments about which framework to use? If you're a hiring manager, who would you rather employ: someone with a few extra advanced-level classes in a specific field (which may have an expiration date as technologies rapidly change)? Or someone with a demonstrated ability to continuously learn, adapt, self-manage, and lead (which could shape your company for years to come)? We're less concerned with advanced in-major honors courses because we're lucky—we're at Michigan Tech. So we focus on skills that will matter after day one. A lifelong toolkit that will help you make decisions, lead when it matters, and keep charting your own pathway—personally and professionally.
