A fit for any major, the 抖阴pro Honors Program offers honors-only courses and smaller, seminar-style classes. Students are also encouraged to participate in internships, independent research projects, and study abroad semesters.
Many honors students go on to professional schools, graduate programs, or to receive prestigious scholarships and fellowships. Others are hired by world-class businesses, engineering firms, and non-profit organizations. Still others join organizations like the Peace Corps or the Jesuit Volunteer Corps. Above all, our honors students become citizens who engage in the process of inquiry and apply their knowledge in service to society.
