Honors Faculty Liaisons | W.A Franke Honors College

Most academic departments have designated a faculty member to serve as the Honors Faculty Liaison for students in their major.

The Honors Faculty Liaison does not generally provide academic advising on degree requirements; rather, this individual provides mentorship and guidance to honors students who are interested in becoming more engaged in their discipline, seeking special research opportunities, or planning for graduate school or careers. Honors Faculty Liaisons can also help students plan for the honors thesis/capstone and answer questions about research in their areas of interest.
