The strength, and indeed the excitement of Quinsigamond Community College lies in our ability to serve the diverse needs of the wide variety of students that we enroll.
Recognizing that there are many students who possess advanced abilities in our discipline, the Psychology Faculty have designed a number of courses that have an Honors Option/Component. In addition to completing all of the regularly assigned work in the course, Honors Students are required to enroll in a specific section designated as an "Honors Component" which meets for one additional hour per week. These courses have been extremely well-received by many of our advanced students and provide learning opportunities that go far beyond the traditional course offerings.
For more specific information on our Honors Component courses, contact Professor Maura Tighe-Stickles: mauras@qcc.mass.edu
