PHIL 90 Honors Program II
Open only to Philosophy senior majors who are participating in the Honors Program. The Honors Program is designed for qualified students interested in doing intensive and individualized work in philosophy. Only those students who have successfully completed the Honors Program are eligible to receive major standings of Honors or High Honors. The program is divided into three stages: the Junior Honors Seminar, preparation and submission of a thesis proposal, and Honors thesis writing. All students who register for the Philosophy Major and who expect to have the necessary cumulative averages (3.50 in Philosophy and 3.33 overall) are invited to join the Junior Honors Seminars. In order to be accepted for Honors thesis writing, a student must successfully complete a Junior Honors Seminar, maintain or attain by the end of the Junior year the required grade point averages, and have a thesis proposal approved by the Philosophy Department by the end of the term in residence prior to commencement of thesis writing.
Students are awarded one course credit for successful completion of this course. Students who have registered for PHIL-089 register for this course and continue with their coursework into a third term. Students do not register for a third term. A final grade will replace the “ON” for both PHIL-089 and this course upon completion of this course at the end of the third term of coursework.
