Undergraduates with strong academic skills who are looking for further challenges are encouraged to consider the Honors Program. This program is an interdisciplinary writing and reading intensive approach to intellectual theories of the past and present in the United States and around the world. All courses are team-taught by professors from different disciplines. The program's three areas of study (Western Culture, Science and Society, and World Cultures) culminate in a capstone honors thesis in the student's junior year.
