Honors Scholars

For Community and Collaborative Leadership

Honors scholars transform ideas into action. In a supportive, collaborative 60 person cohort, students are challenged to apply concepts and theories from their coursework to complex social issues through community-based research. Training in collaborative leadership provides students with the skills to apply their research in community projects for the common good.
