FAU Jupiter Campus? HC, Science, and Max Planck?

We are planning to go see the Honors College in Jupiter, but I am trying to get a better understanding of how things are set up there.

From what I understand, the HC is on the Jupiter campus, and the Jupiter Campus also houses the Charles Schmidt College of science and the Max Planck Institute.

My Daughter is very interested in neuroscience, and in the smaller environment that the Honors college would offer (as compared to large state U campuses), but at FAU Jupiter—what school, and what classes she’d attend seems unclear to me.

If you go to the Honors college, would you also be attending courses through the science college (It seems that is where there is a neuro major.)?

How do these three places interact (Max Planck, Honors College, Schmidt College of Science)?

Something else I saw on the website made me think that the Jupiter campus might be more geared toward students who commute from the local area, but the HC seems very self contained.

Can anyone help clarify some of this for me?
