Departmental honors projects offer the opportunity for independent study in a topic of the student's choosing. Completed departmental honors projects have included research papers, art shows, children's books and novels.
First, students develop a proposal for the project under the direction of a sponsoring faculty member. This proposal is taken to a faculty committee. When approved, the student begins work on their honors project, meeting periodically with their faculty sponsor. Students earn between 5-7 semester hours of credit spread over at least two semesters.
Four departmental honors projects were approved by faculty in 2010. Find out more about each project below.
