Honors-By-Contract
An upper division engineering course without an honors equivalent can be taken for honors credit if an Honors contract is agreed upon by the student and course instructor and approved by the Engineering Honors faculty.
Contract Guidelines
- No 100-200 level courses are allowed to utilize this option.
- Contracts are not allowed for courses that already have honors equivalent courses.
- Contract requirements should be specific, relevant, and measurable.
- Required meetings between student and faculty member should be included in all contracts.
- Honors credit will ONLY be conferred upon completion of contract.
- Typically only one honors-by-contract per student will be approved.
Forms (both must be completed before honors credit is conferred)
- Application Form (due by 3rd week of semester)
- Completion Form (due by grade deadline)
Students who are completing Honors-By-Contract for the Chancellor’s Honors Program and would also like it to be considered for the Cook Grand Challenge Honors Program should submit copies of their CHP Application and Completion forms by email to Kevin Kit, honors program director.
