Honors College Faculty

Honors students turn the tables on the faculty by asking them the questions.

As Chair of Honors College, it is my pleasure to provide an overview of what it means to be an Honors Scholar at the University of Indianapolis. Honors College is designed for highly motivated and creative students. Consistent with the University's student-centered focus, strong liberal arts tradition, and nationally recognized professional schools, the Honors Curriculum is designed to encourage excellence in academics, creative expression, leadership, and service.

Honors College is not a "one size fits-all" experience. It provides advanced study tailored to your chosen field, combined with a common core of honors experiences. Special study abroad opportunities in Greece, local and regional cultural events, and the chance to present your work at professional conferences extend the Honors experience beyond the walls of the university classroom.

See what Honors College can offer you — not just more work to do, but different work with the chance to do so much more.
