University Honors Program
The University of Iowa’s Honors Program enriches the undergraduate experience by cultivating intellectual curiosity, promoting engaged, active learning, and developing students’ self-efficacy. Central to this enrichment is the honors community fostered by the program, which allows students to share engaging coursework, co-curricular involvement, and experiential learning.
The Honors Program strives to remain an inclusive and supportive community for academically motivated students who are dedicated to meaningful learning and who strive to understand the broader significance of their education and experiences through critical self-reflection.
Students can graduate with University Honors (reflected on their transcript and diploma) by completing 12 s.h. of honors coursework and 12 credits of experiential learning activities. The program has a robust menu of experiential learning opportunities, such as research, study abroad, internships, service learning, and more!
