Honors Colloquium
All SAS Honors Program students are required to complete at minimum one Honors Colloquium. Students who enter the SASHP as first-year students are required to complete a second Honors Colloquium, or an approved alternate: Byrne Seminar or a credit-bearing study abroad program/course.
The goal of the Honors Colloquium is to stimulate intellectual curiosity and discussion as well as provide students with an interdisciplinary approach to learning. Through discussions, lectures, film screenings, and museum visits, students will explore topics of social, scientific, and philosophical significance.

The Price of Care
What are the human and structural costs of care? This fall, the SAS Honors Mission Course explores critical questions at the intersection of healthcare, public health, and the human condition, drawing on themes from the Honors College common reading selection. The course examines how access to care is shaped by ethics, social inequality, economics, and public policy, inviting students to consider whose health is valued, protected, or overlooked in American society.
Students will engage with a range of perspectives and mediums to explore healthcare using an interdisciplinary lens. Course content will include guest lectures and multimedia contributions from Rutgers faculty, TED Talks, and related open‑source materials. The course culminates in a collaborative final project that uses multimedia storytelling to examine a course theme, highlighting the human consequences of healthcare systems and envisioning possibilities for more equitable futures.
