THE
WRITING INTENSIVE PROGRAM
The
Writing Intensive Program is an initiative of the UNC Pembroke Quality Enhancement
Plan. The goal of the program is to enhance the ability of students to write
effectively and appropriately in both general writing and professional writing
in their disciplines. The program
consists of Writing Enriched courses and Writing in the Discipline courses.
Writing Enriched courses are 2000- and 3000-level courses in which writing
supplements the coverage of course content. They include extensive and intensive instruction in writing. Writing in the Discipline courses are
3000- and 4000-level courses that are designed to teach students about the
roles and uses of writing in their fields of study. As a requirement for graduation, students must complete nine
semester credit hours of Writing Enriched and Writing in the Discipline
courses. One course must be a
Writing in the Discipline course.
The
courses listed below are approved to be offered as Writing Enriched or Writing
in the Discipline courses. When
these courses appear with the designation WE (Writing Enriched) or WD (Writing
in the Discipline) in the title of the course in the course schedule, they can
be taken to satisfy the writing intensive graduation requirement. The completion of ENG 1050 is a
prerequisite for all Writing Enriched or Writing in the Discipline courses.

HONORS COLLEGE
Dean: Mark Milewicz
Honors College Council: Robert W. Brown (Chair), Thomas A. Dooling, Joseph W. Goldston, Jane Haladay,
Scott Hicks, John Labadie, Ramin Maysami, Lee Phillips
The Esther
G. Maynor Honors College at UNC Pembroke recognizes and promotes the scholarly
and personal growth of outstanding students. Maynor Honors College students are provided interdisciplinary
educational opportunities that enhance the general curriculum. These opportunities are developed
around a learning community of honors students and include selected general
education courses, small interdisciplinary seminars, cultural and service programs,
and shared residential facilities with other honors students. The Maynor Honors College offers an
intellectually stimulating social environment; greater curricular flexibility;
more personal contact and scholarly discussion with students and faculty from
the various disciplines; and closer interaction with individual faculty members
in the College.
Maynor
Honors College students are selected on the basis of class rank, high school
grades, Scholastic Aptitude Test (SAT) scores or American College Testing (ACT)
scores, and extra‑curricular and community achievements. Students already enrolled at UNC
Pembroke and transfer students are also eligible to apply for admission to the
Maynor Honors College. Maynor
Honors College students are selected by the Dean of the Maynor Honors College
in consultation with the Honors College Council.
To remain
in the Maynor Honors College, students are required to achieve and maintain a
minimum overall quality‑point average of 3.0 upon completion of the
freshman year, 3.25 upon completion of the sophomore year, and 3.5 upon
completion of the junior year.
Maynor Honors College students will receive a Maynor Honors College
diploma and will be recognized at commencement. To graduate with the Maynor Honors College designation, the
student must complete the Maynor Honors College program. Any exceptions or substitution of
requirements will be determined by the Dean of the Maynor Honors College in
consultation with the Honors College Council.
Two tracks are available for graduation from the Maynor
Honors College:

four possibilities: 1) Community Service Project. This
project involves a studentÕs active participation in a focused project
involving service to the community. The student must complete either the
Horizon Leadership Program or the Distinguished Leader program, both
administered through the Leadership and Service Opportunities Office. The
Service Project will be supervised by a UNCP faculty member. During the
senior year, the student will schedule an oral presentation, the purpose of
which will be to describe the development, implementation, and outcomes of
the Community Service Project. The faculty mentor and the Dean of the Honors
College will approve the successful completion of the project. 2) Campus Dialogue Project. This
project asks the student to become an active participant in campus-wide
dialogue about a specific issue, usually relative to the studentÕs major. The
student will work with a faculty mentor to research the topic. During the
senior year, the student must organize and facilitate (in consultation with
the mentor and Honors College Dean) at least two campus dialogues on the
topic. These dialogues should involve faculty and students from a variety of
disciplines. The faculty mentor and the Dean of the Honors College will
approve the successful completion of the project. 3) Creative Project. Students
choosing this option will work with a faculty mentor to develop the project.
During the senior year, the student will display or perform his or her art
and then provide an oral description/interpretation of the work. The faculty
mentor and the Dean of the Honors College will approve the successful
completion of the project. 4) Senior Thesis Project. The
Senior Thesis is a written research project completed under the direction of
a faculty mentor. Guidelines are available in the Honors College Office. The
thesis is completed during the senior year, and the student must also
schedule an oral presentation/defense of the thesis. The faculty mentor and
the Dean of the Honors College will approve the successful completion of the
thesis. |

that is above and beyond the normal expectations of the course. Contract
courses must be taught by tenured or tenure-track members of the major
department. The student and faculty will agree upon the requirements for
completing the contract course, fill out the appropriate paperwork (available
online), and obtain the signature of the department chair. The contract and
accompanying syllabus will be turned in to the Dean of the Honors College for
final approval. |
|
*Complete HON 4000 and 4500 |
|
*Successfully complete and
present a Senior Thesis The Senior Thesis is a written
research project completed under the direction of a faculty mentor.

coordinate the successful completion of both University and Departmental
Honors. Those selecting option four for University Honors must also complete
option one, two, or three to receive both University Honors and Departmental
Honors. |
Maynor
Honors College students will take several courses together during the freshman
year prior to beginning their major course work. These courses include several general education courses as
well as one interdisciplinary seminar.
Students with special scheduling needs as freshmen may petition the Dean
of the Maynor Honors College for alternate courses of study during the first
semester. All Maynor Honors College students are advised by the Dean of the
Maynor Honors College until they declare a major field of study.
The seven
HON seminars are usually offered according to the following schedule:
Fall: HON 1000, 2000, 2510; Spring: HON 1510,
2010, 2750; As Announced: HON 3000
Transfer
students and students entering the Maynor Honors College as other than freshmen
will also be expected to take the four honors seminars, so long as they can be
fitted into the studentÕs program of study. The number of honors courses that transfer students or non-freshmen
will be required to take will be determined by the Dean of the Maynor Honors
College, after consultation with the student and the Honors College Council.
Honors
Thesis/Project: All University
Honors College students must complete HON 4000 (Research Methods and Prospectus
[one semester hour]) and HON 4500 (Honors Thesis/Project [three semester
hours]) prior to graduation.
Maynor Honors College students who elect to complete a senior
Thesis/Project in their major department may substitute an equivalent
departmental course for HON 4500.
The departmental Thesis/Project must meet the standards for the Honors
Thesis/Project established by the Honors College Council. The Honors College Council and the Dean
of the Maynor Honors College recommend that HON 4000 should be taken during the
fall semester of the junior year.
University Honors College students should plan on presenting their
Thesis/Project at the end of the fall semester of the senior year. Requirements and procedures for the
Maynor Honors College Thesis/Project are outlined in The Preparation of the
Maynor Honors College Thesis/Project.
Copies of this guide are available from the Dean of the Maynor Honors
College.

The
Bachelor of Interdisciplinary Studies (BIS) program is exclusively designed for
learners with at least two years of transferable credit from institutions other
than UNCP, who hold either Associate in Applied Arts or Associate in Applied
Science degrees. The program serves
adult students, in particular, who seek a broad, more flexible degree program
to help them to advance or become more established in their careers or to
improve their understanding of the world around them.
The BIS is
intended for a set of diverse students who bring to the university many
academic, personal, and work-related experiences. They may choose the BIS program because (1) they are aware
that they are more employable in many occupations with the degree, (2) that
learning in the arts and sciences and in a field of specialization leads to
understanding and empowerment, and (3) they review their personal plans and
recognize that they can effectively meet their most important goals for a
bachelorÕs degree through the BIS.

TEACHING FELLOWS
PROGRAM
Director: Karen Granger
The
University of North Carolina at Pembroke is one of the seventeen institutions
participating in the North Carolina Teaching Fellows Program. The Program is funded by the State of North Carolina to attract
the Òbest and brightestÓ students to the teaching profession. High school
students apply to the Teaching Fellows Program in the fall of the senior year.
Following a state‑wide selection process, four hundred Teaching Fellows are
selected annually by the North Carolina Teaching Fellows Commission. Each
Teaching Fellow receives a $26,000 scholarship ($6500/year for four years) and
is required to teach in North Carolina for at least four years.
Teaching Fellows
choosing to attend UNC Pembroke participate in an academically and culturally
enriched teacher education program. Entering Teaching Fellows participate in a
summer orientation program designed to introduce students to the teaching
profession and acquaint them with the University, faculty, staff,
administrators, and fellow students. Teaching Fellows enroll in a special
section of the required Freshman Seminar course (FRS 1000) taught by the
Teaching Fellows Program Director.
The students also enroll in a special section of English 1050:
Composition I taught by the English Department.
Throughout their
program of study at UNCP, Teaching Fellows participate in monthly seminars on
topics including cultural diversity, leadership development, and other issues
of importance to future teachers. The seminars are led by faculty, area
educators, and leaders from the public and private sectors. Teaching Fellows
work closely with select faculty mentors on research and special projects.
Educational and
recreational field trips provide Teaching Fellows the opportunity for personal
and professional development. Special social events are scheduled each
semester. Teaching Fellows participate in activities coordinated by the Public
School Forum during the summers following their freshman, sophomore, and junior
years.
Additional

HEALTH
PROFESSIONS PROGRAMS
In
addition to the Bachelor of Science in Nursing, described in the College of
Arts and Sciences section, the Departments of Biology and Chemistry and Physics
provide curricula which meet the requirements for admission into most schools
of medicine, dentistry, veterinary science, and medical technology. In addition, students wishing to pursue
a degree in a variety of other health related professions such as pharmacy,
optometry, physical therapy, etc., can obtain some of the required college
preparation (generally two years) at UNC Pembroke prior to transfer to the
appropriate professional school.
In each case, admission to the professional school is competitive, and
completion of the prescribed curriculum at UNCP does not guarantee such
admission. Because entrance requirements vary with the profession and with
individual schools, it is the responsibility of the student to be familiar with
the requirements of the specific school to which he or she plans to apply.
Advice or assistance can be obtained from the Health Careers Counselor, or from
any biology or chemistry faculty member.

Although a
B.S. degree is technically not a prerequisite for these programs, the large
majority of students who apply and are accepted do hold an undergraduate
degree. It is therefore recommended that students interested in these areas
pursue a B.S. degree. The Departments of Biology and Chemistry and Physics
offer B.S. programs with biomedical emphasis that enable a student to meet
requirements for most professional schools. These programs are detailed in the
program descriptions of the Departments of Biology and Chemistry and Physics.
