Learning Communities At UND

'

There are programs at UND that purposefully offer students the opportunity to participate in academic programs while developing lasting relationships with a small group of students and faculty. These programs afford students a relatively small “community” for pursuing their academic studies, although each community varies in its structure and methods.

The Integrated Studies Program is one of these learning communities. A nationally-known, award-winning program, Integrated Studies (ISP) provides an alternative method for taking the general education classes which UND requires. Each semester of ISP includes credit from each of the four general education categories: Communications; Social Sciences; Arts and Humanities; and Math, Science, and Technology. All class activities and discussions are organized around a central theme to develop connections between disciplines, and class meeting time includes a variety of small group settings in which discussion among students is emphasized. For more information, refer to the Integrated Studies catalog listing, call (701) 777-3622, or visit our website at: www.und.edu/dept/integr8

The Wellness Community focuses on living a balanced lifestyle within the college environment. As members of the Wellness “wing” in Brannon Hall, you will have the opportunity to develop healthy practices, and incorporate the seven aspects of wellness: emotional, intellectual, physical, occupational/vocational, environmental, social and spiritual. For information on the Wellness Community, contact the Housing Office at (701) 777-4251.

The Honors Program
(described below) is a learning community designed for students with an interest in intellectual and creative pursuits. Students participate in an Honors class or two per semester as part of their program of study throughout their undergraduate education. Other educational, social, and service activities extend their learning beyond the classroom experience. Honors housing allows students the option of carrying the learning community into specially designated wing of Fulton residence hall. For information on Honors housing, contact the Housing Office at (701) 777-4251. Students in any college of the University may apply for admission to this learning community. For more information, call (701) 777-2219.
