Honors Program

The University Honors Program, offering lower-division courses taught by distinguished faculty, introduces undergraduates to the challenges and rewards of scholarship and research from the beginning of their undergraduate careers. Once students achieve upper-division status, the program invites outstanding students to design and produce honors theses and projects under individual faculty supervision. Through the departmental Honors Program, highly qualified students are invited to conduct a research thesis of their own initiative and design in collaboration with a faculty member.
