85% of faculty hold Ph.D.s or terminal degrees General Studies Program Gallaudet’s General Studies Requirements (GSR) are planned with the university’s liberal arts philosophy in mind. During your first year, you will complete a cluster of four Freshman Foundation courses that comprise the basis of the critical thinking, reasoning, language, and communication skills that you’ll use for the rest of your collegiate career and beyond. After the first year, take integrated courses that challenge your inner intellectual. Faculty members from two different departments team up to present an interdisciplinary course around a central topic that allows you to connect skills and knowledge from multiple fields and experience. And finally, cultivate your scholarly skills in a Capstone course during which you team up with classmates to tackle a real world problem through a project, artifact, or work experience. Honors Program Students accepted into the Honors Program may pursue General Studies Honors and/or Capstone Honors. The Honors curriculum features interdisciplinary courses and research apprenticeships especially designed by select faculty to fuel rigorous investigations of ideas, rhetoric, and philosophies. Opt to do a Capstone project, and face the ultimate test of scholarship: working closely with a faculty committee of your choice to design and self-direct a thesis or project that contributes to existing knowledge or understanding. The Honors Program has previously supported students who submit proposals to the National Collegiate Honors Council or do research and internships in Hawaii, New York City, and London. Other benefits include possible merit-based scholarships, an annual retreat for incoming and returning students, as well as a summer discussion board to foster both academic and social dialogue. 4 Academics
