There are many benefits associated with participation in the University Honors and Leadership (UHL) program. In addition to its small, seminar-style classes taught by faculty members selected for their teaching and research expertise, the UHL program offers:
- The opportunity to choose a unique multidisciplinary academic honors experience or an honors program in leadership studies
- Membership in a cohort-based program that provides an intellectual and social community from the moment you arrive on campus as a freshman
- An innovative curriculum that provides a unique path to satisfying the university’s core curriculum requirements
- A wide range of multidisciplinary courses, which break down the walls that too often separate academic disciplines
- Specialized student advising
- Opportunities to engage in cutting-edge research with UC Denver faculty members
- International education experiences, including intensive foreign language study and study abroad programs with fellow UHL students
- Interaction with students and faculty across UC Denver’s schools and colleges
- The opportunity to participate in state, regional, and national honors and leadership conferences
- UHL-specific scholarship opportunities
- “University Honors” designations on your diploma and transcript
