Honors Programs Available
The College of Engineering offers its undergraduates two types
of honors programs and other options that recognize academic
achievement.
- Engineering Honors in Liberal Arts
The college offers
prospective EGR students the opportunity to apply for the
Engineering Honors in Liberal Arts (EHLA) program. The EHLA
program is intended for a certain number of high-ability
students who have a special interest in taking challenging
background courses in physical science, natural science,
humanities, foreign language, and social science.
- Engineering honors in research
Individual engineering
departments are in the process of developing and offering
honors programs for high-ability students enrolled in their
majors. Students in these programs will plan and conduct
engineering research projects under the guidance of faculty
members.
- Other options for recognition
Outstanding engineering
students gain recognition in other ways. All engineering
departments grant merit-based scholarships for academic
achievement. The college also recognizes those students who
graduate in the top five percent of their class with the
transcript notation "Graduated with highest distinction."
At the end of each semester the names of all full-time students in good standing
with 3.25 or higher semester GPA will be included on the "Dean's Honor List." A
notation of "Dean's Honor List" and date will be entered on the
student transcript.
