Description
Under the direction of a Faculty member, students pursue a topic of interest leading to the development of a thesis proposal (the proposed research is completed in PSYCH 490). The work normally involves both directed readings and empirical research experience. Note: Must be taken twice in the first year in the Honors program. In the first year in the Honors Program students must complete a formal presentation (i.e., oral or poster) about their research progress. This is typically done at the annual Honors Psychology Conference. Other public venues can fulfill this requirement, with approval by the Honors advisor. Prerequisite: A committed Thesis Supervisor. Restricted to, and required of, students in their first year in the Arts Honors Psychology program. [Faculty of Arts]
