Elon College Fellows
Be sure to visit the Elon College Fellows Web site.
As an Elon
College Fellow, you will join a community with a longstanding
tradition of excellence in the arts and sciences. The program
begins with an introduction to the primary academic areas in
the arts and sciences. You will explore the nature and
processes of the disciplines -- what it means to think like a
sociologist or conduct research as an organic chemist.
During the four-year program, you can expect to:
- Be part of a community of students and faculty who will support your intellectual and personal development.
-
Explore the major branches of the arts
and sciences and learn to ask questions from multiple
perspectives.
-
See the arts and sciences in action as
you study in Washington, D.C., during Winter Term.
-
Take a team-taught seminar that will
help you explore what it means to think and work as a
professional as you focus your academic plans and choose a
major.
-
Work with faculty mentors on creative,
discovery-based projects that culminate in professional
products, presentations or significant research and
writing.
- Be received into one of three specific discipline-based programs as an Arts and Humanities Fellow, a Social Science Fellow, or a Math and Science Fellow.
Arts and Humanities Fellows are dedicated to the disciplines of Art, Art History, Dance Performance and Choreography, English, Foreign Languages, Music, Music Technology, Performing Arts, Philosophy or Religious Studies.
Social Sciences Fellows immerse themselves in Anthropology, History, Human Services, International Studies, Political Science, Psychology, Public Administration or Sociology.
Mathematical and Natural Sciences Fellows demonstrate an excellent aptitude for Biology, Chemistry, Computing Sciences, Environmental Studies, Mathematics or Physics.
