Sixth College Community-Engaged Honors Program

Academic Programs
Catalyst, North Torrey Pines Living Learning Neighborhood

The Community-Engaged Honors Program at Sixth College supports highly motivated students in becoming critical thinkers, lifelong learners, and change makers, both at UC San Diego and in their communities. The program provides a cohort-based and community-engaged learning experience themed around the intersections of art and technology as those forces produce, critique, and reflect cultures. The Honors Program prioritizes critical thinking and problem-solving, self-reflection, civic engagement, and social responsibility.

Students in the program are required to complete a three-course honors sequence consisting of CAT 2CE, CAT 3CE, and CAT 90 or CAT 124. Each course within the sequence is designed to be taught in a small, seminar style in order to give students the opportunity to develop close relationships with both their instructors and fellow classmates.

All students, regardless of GPA, who have demonstrated a commitment to the values of community engagement and community building are invited to apply. Applications open in the fall quarter, with each new cohort beginning the program in winter quarter by taking CAT 2CE. Students who successfully complete the three-course sequence will be awarded a transcript notation reading “Sixth College Community-Engaged Honors.”
