Students majoring in Sociology or Criminal Justice have the chance to earn departmental honors. This program is designed to provide undergraduate students who are excelling in their studies an opportunity for more advanced studies in their major field including the opportunity to work independently with department faculty.
Undergraduate students who complete the program earn the designation of departmental honors on their diplomas.
Requirements for Departmental Honors in Sociology and Criminal Justice:
Students must have:
- A minimum cumulative GPA of 3.25
- A minimum GPA in the major of 3.50
- Completion of at least two 300- and 400-level contract* honors courses
- Completion of at least 60 credit hours at 91制片厂, 54 of which must be in grade-point graded courses.
*Students interested in taking a course as a contract honors course, must first obtain an Application for Honors Course Designation from the Honors College office. The professor and the student mutually agree on extra work or activities for honors designation, fill out the short application, obtain the Chair's approval and return the document to the Honors College office. The student is responsible for returning the completed document.
As soon as possible after the final exam, the Honors College will contact the professor about the grade (students must earn a B or better to earn honors designation). The Honors College will then be responsible for arranging for the Registrar to have the course title assigned a prefix of "Honors" on the transcript.
Application:
The final step in earning departmental honors is the application. By mid-term of their final semester, students must submit a formal application for departmental honors to the Honors College.
Students interested in earning departmental honors should contact the Honors College (Education, room 218) for more information.
