Departmental Honors

Honors in the concentration are awarded by vote of the faculty in the area of concentration to those seniors who have completed courses that satisfy the concentration with an average of not less than B+ or 3.3 and who have also met with distinction the additional criteria established for honors in the concentration. Individual departments and programs may require a higher average. These criteria are listed in the departmental entries online. Matters of character constitute legitimate considerations for a department to deny an award of honors in the concentration.
