Faculty Roles in the Honors Program
- Mentor an honors student that will assist you in your research
- Advise an honors student working on a project in an area related to your interests
- Teach an honors seminar of your choosing in one of your areas of expertise
- Offer a special honors component for one of your courses
- Each honors student must find a faculty advisor in a timely manner so there is plenty of time to develop the project before the work begins.
- The student is asked to file an honors project intent statement, which identifies the possible topic, 1 to 3 possible research questions, and the name of the faculty advisor.
- Once the project has been decided upon, the honors student must complete an honors project Project Proposal Form.
- The advisor reviews the packet of information and signs the coversheet.
- Advisors should review the honors project section of this website to be aware of the process and deadlines for the student.
- If you are interested in working as a project advisor, contact your department representative to the College Honors Committee and visit with honors students in your department.
