Happiness and Human Flourishing

Happiness and Human Flourishing Frederick Honors College Scholars Community is an interdisciplinary teaching initiative dedicated to the promotion of the flourishing person as the central animating principle of the applied sciences - particularly health sciences and engineering. We focus first on helping students construct good and meaningful lives through academic learning grounded in social science and the humanities and work with students to help consider how their own applied studies and work might be oriented toward the promotion of good and meaningful lives of people nationally and globally. Central to the mission is a deep commitment to open and civil discourse, as well as an engagement with the humanities for applied scientists.
