Scholarly Opportunities
Outstanding undergraduate Psychology scholars have the opportunity to participate in two distinct programs in recognition of their high academic achievement.
Honors Program
The Psychology Honors Program serves to train students to conduct psychological research and prepare them for graduate school. Students receive mentoring, take psychology honors classes, receive assistance in preparing for graduate school, participate in informal activities associated with psychology, and present their work at meetings or co-author a research paper. Honors Program participants also earn an Honors designation on their diploma.
