The Honors College
In Nanook Nation, Honors is verb.
The Honors College is about creating opportunities for your community as much as yourself. We strive to find science-base solutions, informed by indigenous knowledge and powered by 21st century tools. We believe in doing the research and living your learning. We help you identify internships, research projects, and more that best fit your interests and goals. We work to connect you with community engagement opportunities and international experiences that will enrich your education, and broaden your horizons.
