You've earned your Honors Units through Gateway 188体育app_188体育在线-平台官网s, Honors Courses, and Cocurricular 188体育app_188体育在线-平台官网s. Now it's time to bring it all together. Each Honors student must complete a Culminating 188体育app_188体育在线-平台官网 that earns at least 2 Honors Units. You have options:
Honors Thesis
(4-8 Honors Units)
The most traditional culminating Honors experience, the Honors Thesis is a sustained, independent research project that is advised by a faculty mentor. Each major has its own thesis course, which can count for 4-8 credits (as well as for 4-8 Honors Units). Thesis courses also often count as the capstone for the major. The Honors Thesis is a good choice for students pursuing graduate study or interested in research careers.
Final Honors Project
(Variable Honors Units)
While Honors in many majors culminates in a thesis, some specify different experiences, like a team-based design project or a performance. Any experiences that counts as the final project for an Honors in Major program will also count as the University Honors Culminating 188体育app_188体育在线-平台官网.
Honors Synthesis
(2 Honors Units)
The Honors Synthesis is a student-designed learning experience that requires reflection on the learning journey. Students decide what deliverable best encapsulates their UNH experience--whether a performance, a business plan, an event, or something else. Students must engage with peer feedback on their Synthesis proposal, and present their project to other Honors College students at a final event.
