The departmental honors program provides opportunities for
qualified students to enrich their undergraduate studies and to receive
recognition for academic excellence in economics.
Students are qualified to enroll in the departmental honors program if
they have completed a minimum of 60 credit hours of academic work with a
minimum GPA of 3.50 and have completed at least ECON 101, ECON 102, ECON
311 and ECON 312 with a minimum GPA of 3.50. Completion of the
departmental honors program requires that students maintain a minimum
overall GPA of 3.50 and a minimum GPA of 3.50 in economics courses. Four
of the upper-level ECON courses to complete the major must be designated
as honors courses; students will complete supplemental research in these
courses under the guidance of the instructor. Students must attain a
minimum GPA of 3.75 in their upper-level honors courses.
Interested students should contact their major advisor or the departmental
honors advisor, Dr. Michael
Bradley, for
complete information on
departmental honors.
