Steps:
Upperclassmen who qualify as candidates for departmental honors must perform outstanding scholarly work appropriate to the academic standards of the student's major in the form of a six-credit Departmental Honors project.
A student who fulfills requirements for departmental honors will be acknowledged as having done so upon graduation.
A student who previously has not participated in the honors program may qualify as a candidate for departmental honors based on the student's grade-point average.
Students with at least 74 semester hours credit who have a grade point average of 3.20 or better on all college work attempted, who have completed at least 30 semester hours of work with a 3.20 or better grade point average at UNCW, and who are recommended by the major department chair (or dean where appropriate) are eligible to enroll in coursework with a 499 designation which indicates the senior project in that discipline.
Academic departments may require a higher grade point average for eligibility for Departmental Honors in their discipline.
Departments in each discipline determine appropriate preparatory academic experiences for Departmental Honors in that field. Candidates for Departmental Honors may fulfill preparation for senior capstone work beginning in the junior year through one or more of the following:
The departmental honors project culminates in independent study under the supervision of a faculty member in the student's major field.
This independent study must be completed in two three-credit hour semesters or three two-credit hour semesters. The results of the honors work are summarized in a paper and presented orally before an examining committee.
