Current Students:

• A contract is required between you and your instructor detailing your Honors project. The project should be designed to take you beyond the normal requirements for the course. The Honors Program attempts to offer Honors credit in a number of disciplines – from Welding to Information Systems and from Math to Sociology. The program is only limited by you, your instructor, and your field of interest.
