Honors

There are many issues to understand when considering whether to pursue honors in your major.

This section of the site provides basic information including details about eligibility and the deadlines for your application. If you're not sure why you should pursue honors, we have information designed to help you with your decision.

If you've already reached your decision, you'll need more information about how to apply, writing a proposal, defining your question, and seeking a mentor. If you're overseas, you'll want to know about how to apply from abroad.

Finally, we offer some information about the honors thesis, including how to develop a research topic, find sources and the appropriate structure and format.

Students may apply to present their research at the annual Carroll Round international economics conference held at Georgetown every April.
