Honors
Interdepartmental studies students qualify for membership in the University of Iowa Honors Program by maintaining a cumulative University of Iowa g.p.a. of at least 3.33 (contact the University of Iowa Honors Program for more information). Graduating with honors usually includes the successful completion of the honors requirements in a particular department or program.
Students should initiate inquiries about graduating with honors by contacting the ISP coordinator. Students are encouraged to inquire early in their junior year to allow time for foundation course work. The director of the University of Iowa Honors Program can offer suggestions for contacting a supervising faculty member or committee from one or several appropriate departments. ISP students must submit an honors project approval form to the ISP coordinator and the honors program director
