Create Your Own Project With Honors.
Students in the John Martinson Honors Program have the ability to enroll in an Honors Directed Study, an exclusive course experience in which a student works alongside a Northeastern faculty member on a project of their own design.
Course Details
The Honors Directed Study can be taken as one of the following course options:
HONR 2992 (0 Credits)
- Non-credit bearing course.
- This option is best for students who do not want to pay for credit hours but would still like to get involved in research and creative endeavors.
HONR 4992 (1-4 Credits)
- Credit bearing course.
- Provides the possibility of fulfilling an upper-class elective.
Required Forms
Once students have determined their area of interest and a potential faculty member, they will need to submit an Honors Directed Study Proposal Form.
Please reach out to your Honors advisor with questions or to get started on the process of project approval and registration.
IRB Approval
Students working with human subjects in their research should consult the Department of Human Research to determine if IRB approval is required for their project and, if necessary, provide appropriate documentation signifying approval.
IACUC Approval
Students working with vertebrate animals should provide appropriate documentation signifying IACUC approval.
