(2) Students also may elect to complete an individual thesis, not part of an organized course, supervised by a faculty member. The project may be focused on a student`s major area of study or may reflect a special interest or talent of the student outside of his or her major. Credit is given only upon completion of the project. Open to Honors College seniors only by permission of the director. Both terms must be completed to receive credit. This is the capstone of the Honors College requirements. |
