Honors Program

The Honors Program combines the love of learning with the desire to positively impact the world.

Honors students quickly find themselves part of a group of motivated peers and engaging faculty. Instructors offer hands-on opportunities to engage students and help them develop important life skills like perspective, thinking, civic engagement and speaking. Honors prepares students to be leaders. Many of our graduates move directly into competitive graduate and professional programs, while others have their choice of job offers.
