Information on Honors Courses and Contracting
An honors course contract is an agreement between a faculty member and an Honors Student that allows the student to obtain Honors credit for a standard course. The agreement typically allows the student to delve deeper into the course material and produce a project, research, or paper. The student and faculty member determine the outcome.
Here is how to contract a course in 4 easy steps! Remember Proposal forms are due within the first two weeks of classes and completion forms are due on study day. Current Students, please go to the Honors Canvas Page for the most relevant instructions.
