Department Honors

                                                                 

The School of Social Work offers an honors option to independently and intensively research a specialized area of interest in social work. This option is available to students exhibiting superior academic capability and discipline. Through this process, students are challenged by a faculty mentor to develop advanced research and writing skills. With guidance from the student's honors thesis advisor, the student engages in research that culminates in the production of an honors thesis research paper, poster, and presentation. Students who complete the program earn special recognition upon graduation and in their university record. The honors thesis is designed to support student development of the skills, knowledge, and self-confidence needed to prosper in graduate school. For additional information regarding eligibility please contact Dr. Laura Brierton Granruth, Stayer Room 311, 871-5956. Laura.Granruth@millersville.edu.
