This course covers each of the four elements: Self-Discovery, Developing Strong Personal Attributes, Creative Problem Solving, and Balancing Personal and Professional Goals with the Needs of Others, and is designed to set students on the right path and inspire them to reach their full potential.

What to expect in the HU 110 course:

  • An introduction to the four phases of the Pathway to Empowerment 

  • Opportunities for students to work alongside peers and instructors in small group settings 

  • An understanding of the resources and tools available to help students succeed both academically and personally

Self-Discovery Starts Here

HU 110 starts students on the path of self-discovery by encouraging students to find their interests and passions, and considering the impact they want to have on the future.
