Honors

Honors-in-Course or Honors-in-Field is in-depth work related to a given course or field of study. It is undertaken at the invitation of an instructor or at the student’s own initiative.

Departmental Honors are awarded to students who consistently perform well and do Honors work in their major. The department faculty evaluates that work against accepted criteria.

All-University Honors carry you to the top of the academic mountain. This award says a student has performed with distinction throughout a college career, has undertaken a given number of Honors projects, and has participated in at least one Honors Seminar.
