Philosophy Honors Program

Students must complete 8 hours of honors credits AND do an independent research project.

The 8 honors hours can be met by:

• taking honors courses in philosophy;
• doing up to 4 hours of independent research or
• contracting a philosophy course to make it into an honors course.

These credits can all be used towards the regular major, so this does NOT require the student to take more than the normal 32 hours.
