| "This personal odyssey will stand out as one of the best teaching experiences that I've had at Carolina, and I think that, from reading their journals, I speak for the students, also. I gained a new appreciation for the value of incorporating on-site experience into our educational format. Many of our students travel independently, but when we make a collective investment in a project such as this, the rewards to them and to the University will have a more forceful impact." Dr. Hal French, Professor Emeritus of Religious Studies taught SCCC 361R Spiritual Heritage of Greece and Turkey on campus during spring 2006 with a maymester course in Greece and Turkey. |
Off Campus Course Development Guide
Off-campus study is an important component of the Honors College (SCHC) curriculum. We believe that students hone their leadership skills, gain valuable personal & academic insights, and learn about the world beyond USC and SC when they supplement their studies with off-campus academic experiences. SCHC students can earn credit toward their honors requirements when they participate in off-campus programs, including study abroad, service learning, research and internships. View the RFP.
The information in this guide will take you through the process of developing, proposing and preparing to lead an off-campus study experience. The SCHC will work closely with you during all stages, and we encourage you to contact us at any time during the process with questions.
