UCR Honors | University Honors (UH)

The founding of UH dates back to 1988 when it was established through a major grant from the Ford Foundation. UH encourages well prepared and highly motivated students to excel in this challenging academic environment. UH also stresses the concept of "service-learning," a crucial element of the program. The Honors curriculum provides students special seminars,

projects, and classes designed to introduce them to the challenges and rewards of scholarship and research. With fewer students than most introductory classes, these honors course intensify the students' contact with some of the most enthusiastic and innovative faculty members at UCR. In addition the program builds on the foundation of close student-faculty relationships to support students in pursuing their academic interests by producing substantial honor theses or projects under the supervision of faculty advisors. Through curricular and developmental programming, faculty mentorship, and exposure to vast educational opportunities Honors encourages students to take an active role in shaping their education.
