Senior Year
In the final year of undergraduate study, Honors Program students complete a thesis. This project allows Honors students the opportunity to work closely with a faculty advisor in their major department. To begin the thesis, students must take the Thesis Seminar offered through the Honors Program each fall term, producing a thesis prospectus. Students write the thesis over winter and/or spring term and give a short presentation upon completion.
