Honors Program
Departmental Liaisons
- The staff of the Honors Program is always willing and happy to assist honors students as best we can with academic advisement. Please contact us. In addition, there are Honors Departmental Liaisons available to help you.
- The Honors Program has created Honors Departmental Liaisons to assist honors-eligible students connect with user-friendly honors advisors in the students department. These faculty are familiar with the Honors Program and have volunteered to help you understand how participation in the Honors Program would “fit” with your specific major. They represent a broad range of majors and departments. Please contact them!
- For those of you already in the Program, these Honors Departmental Liaisons can help you tease out ideas for your Senior Honors Project. If you need help connecting to appropriate faculty sponsors for your Project, they may be able to make some suggestions.
