Go Above and Beyond in the Honors Program at St. Francis College

Do you want something more than just a degree from your college education? Do your intellectual interests go beyond the boundaries of the classroom? As a student in the Honors Program at St. Francis College, you will have the resources and opportunities you need to make your education everything you want it be.

By bringing together exceptionally talented, intellectually curious students and faculty to examine a wide range of interdisciplinary topics, the Honors Program at St. Francis College enriches students’ academic experiences and prepares them for the complexities of an interconnected global community. From quantum computing to the tooth fairy as a tool to help children mature and just about every topic in between, students in the Honors Program are given the intellectual freedom and opportunity to pursue their most passionate interests.

To help foster this environment of creativity, and exploration, in each seminar, tests and exams are replaced by oral presentations, papers, and projects. Students take one seminar each semester. The class size is limited to just twelve sutdents ensuring that everyone gets the personal attention and guidance they need to fulfill their ambitions. In their senior year, under the guidance of a mentor of their choice, students choose an interdisciplinary topic for their Honors thesis. They also participate in discussions, conduct research projects and take field trips in and around New York—and abroad—to gain practical experience and make the connections between the real world and their seminar subjects come alive.

Take advantage of every opportunity college has to offer. Enroll in the Honors Program at St. Francis College.
