Honors Research Project

Course Description

The Honors program culminates in an experiential learning project to be completed in a minimum of two and a maximum of four semesters. This research project will address a topic not fully addressed by any specific course at SU. If the topic relates to a course or departmental capstone project, a clear and detailed explanation of how this Honors project supersedes and transcends the course of capstone is required. If students choose a topic in their major, some degree of interdisciplinarity is expected. By the end of the second week of classes in the first semester of HONS-450, students must submit a research proposal describing the duration and methodology of the project and the final deliverable product. The proposal must name an advisor from the faculty that has agreed to supervise the project. The project may be interrupted for study abroad, and may be prolonged, should the advisor deem an extension necessary for quality assurance. Once completed, the project is publicly presented in events organized by the Honors Program. Minimum of 2 SH. CC: Interdisciplinary. Capstone.
