Departmental Honors and HUHC

Departmental honors is distinct from Honors College and reserved for eligible majors in the departmental major. It does not require membership or participation in Honors College.

However, Honors College strongly encourages all eligible HUHC students to pursue departmental honors in their major(s) under the respective departmental Honors Essay or Honors Research listing. Students must contact their major adviser and departmental chairperson to make arrangements for supervised independent research. This work takes place in the major department, but Honors College will count those credits toward the student's Honors College total. For the HUHC Graduate with Distinction designation, a GPA of 3.6 and completion of a departmental honors course are required.
