The educational experience in the Clark Honors College culminates in a thesis written in your field that meets disciplinary standards while conveying the conclusions and broader significance of your research to a general audience. The thesis offers the opportunity to delve into the research that most interests and excites you, in which you use the foundational blocks of critical thinking, analytical reading, effective writing, clear oral communication, independence, problem-solving, and creativity that you have been learning in both the Honors College courses and in your major. This thesis prospectus course launches you into this thesis project and the various aspects of the research process. At the end of the course you should feel reasonably prepared to embark on the thesis in efficient ways, with a good relationship cemented with your advisor, and with explicit steps to take to complete your thesis on schedule.
