The Department of Natural Sciences offers an Honors Program to enhance the educational experience of talented students at UHD. This program encourages in-depth study an area of natural science coupled with a research project culminating in a written thesis and a seminar presentation to the faculty and students. University transcripts of students successfully completing this program will show the students as graduates of the Honors Program in the Department of Natural Sciences.

Students who are interested should contact Dr. Morano before they have completed 60 hours of university-level work (16 hours in science, eight of which must have been taken at UHD) and have a 3.25 GPA in science courses.

More details for admission and program requirements can be obtained from the Senior Honors Thesis Handbook and through Dr. Lisa Morano, Honors Program Coordinator.
