Departmental Honors
Departmental Honors Projects (DHPs) are a rigorous and fulfilling way of pursuing a long-term research project in your major. DHPs may emerge out of sophomore- and junior-year courses, study-abroad experiences, collaborative research projects, or students’ intellectual passions. Students usually begin formal work on DHPs in the spring of junior year, and complete the DHP in the spring of the senior year. To learn more about DHPs in your department, consult your advisor and your department chair.

Please note: In 2016-2017, Oral Defenses must be completed on or before April 21, 2017, and any necessary revisions must be completed on or before April 28, 2017. It is the student's responsibility to set a date and time for the defense. New scheduling procedures mean that once the student has arranged a date and time with the committee, the faculty adviser must reserve the space for them. The room must be large enough to accommodate the student and the committee (typically five people).
