Honors Projects FAQs
Can a Senior Experience project also be submitted as an Honors Project?
All students contemplating graduation must complete a Senior Experience as a condition of their graduation. This Senior Experience may be submitted for Honors in Independent Study, provided the criteria for cum laude Honors are met. Individual Departments determine whether or not an Honors project may serve as the Senior Experience.
May two or more students collaborate on a single Honors Project?
Projects undertaken jointly may be submitted for Honors in Independent Study. The work involved in such cases, however, must be equitably shared and demonstrate benefits clearly resulting from the merger of the authors’ different skills and knowledge. Students considering joint projects must obtain the consent of their faculty advisor(s) and the Committee on Honors well in advance of such endeavors.
