Research
The Honors Program offers a number of opportunities for
undergraduate students to work directly with faculty members on
for-credit research projects.
-
Faculty interested in working with Honors students can complete the research interest form.
-
Undergraduate Research Participation
(URP) gives Honors students the opportunity to engage in research with a
faculty member. Students gain experience in research methodology,
benefit from one-on-one interaction with faculty, and may earn between
one and six hours of Honors credit.
-
Honors Thesis (IDS 395) provides
students the opportunity to engage in an intensive research project
that is the culmination of their Honors experience. The thesis should
focus on a special area or issue related to the student's major and
requires a comprehensive written thesis and an oral defense of the
research.
-
Research mentorships offer Honors student
the opportunity to earn a monetary stipend while working with a
faculty member on a research-related project. Applications for fall
semester mentorships are available in the Honors Office.
