The Honors Program
The honors program is an opportunity for upper-class midshipmen to carry out a major research project under the direct supervision of a faculty member. As an honors candidate, a midshipman is responsible to his/her faculty advisor, who guides the design, research, and analysis of the subject of interest. The student's major code switches from 'ENM' to 'ENMH' or 'EOE' to 'EOEH,' and the student's diploma indicates a Bachelor of Science "with Honors."
Eligibility
- CQPR of 3.00 (Or Above)
- Major QPR (ENM or EOE) of 3.50 (Or Above)
- No 'D' or 'F' Final Grade in Any Course
