Honors Program
Welcome to the Honors Program at SOU
SOU will inaugurate a new Honors program beginning Fall Term 2007 (pending approval of the SOU Faculty Senate). This is a unique opportunity to get in on the ground floor of this exciting new program. Get even more involved by joining the Honors Club and by helping shape the growth of this new program.
The SOU Honors Program partners with programs across campus and is designed to provide students with a comprehensive intellectual experience both in and out of the classroom. The program seeks to instill intellectual excitement and leadership qualities in students that will prepare them for careers, community service, and active citizenship.
Honors coursework emphasizes disciplinary and multidisciplinary perspectives and argumentation. To this end, the program offers a specially designed Honors curriculum providing enriched exposure to scholarly and creative work.
The program culminates in a senior thesis or creative project that allows students to select an issue or question to address from their major field of study, as well as demonstrate their understanding of how their major area researches and addresses questions and its connection to other areas.
