Honors Faculty

The Honors College is successful in enriching the academic experience for our students when we have faculty in numerous disciplines across campus who contribute in significant ways to the success of the program.

Faculty Involvement in Honors

The role of the faculty in fulfilling the mission of the Honors College cannot be overstated. Whether you are teaching an Honors course, mentoring an Individual Honors Work project or portfolio, or directing a Senior Honors Thesis, your work is critical to our efforts to attract students to the program, to provide high expectations for academic excellence, and to provide an environment for student success.

  • Teaching an Honors course

  • Participating in Honors trips such as Honors courses with study abroad opportunities
  • Planning a community service project with Honors students
  • Encouraging your high ability students to complete a Senior Honors Thesis/Project
