The Honors Senior Thesis is required of all Honors Program degree candidates. It represents the result of a substantial research project chosen by the student, and is designed to provide a challenging, rewarding educational experience for the student. As a general rule, the thesis should be significantly more substantive than an in-course paper, but something less than a Master's thesis.
The Senior Thesis should be the result of an ongoing professional relationship between student and advisor. The thesis project itself should entail a number of discrete tasks. It is unacceptable for a student to submit a finished paper if the Advisor has not played an integral part in its development.
These are only the general expectations and procedures. Individual students, advisors, topics, or circumstances appropriately may require exceptions.
