Honors Fellows Program

Open to Fellows in their second year, this course offers study and in situ experience of an American city. Students will study major themes pertaining to the city's history and present, such as immigration and labor. They will visit the city in a cohort, balancing group activities devised by the course instructor and personal itineraries of their own devising.

Open to all students of junior standing, this course introduces students to the processes of applying for major postgraduate fellowships and grants. Students will review opportunities for postgraduate study such as Fulbright grants and the Truman Scholarship. Students will study and gain practice in the core components of applications for these awards: the construction of a resume or curriculum vitae, a statement of purpose, and interviewing. 

A capstone experience in which Honors Fellows complete either a creative project or a research project in consultation with interdisciplinary project advisory committees that will be cultivated by the Fellow. Fellows will meet weekly in seminar form to develop their projects.
