Texas A&M University-Corpus Christi
Honors Program
Mission
The Honors Program at Texas A&M University-Corpus
Christi offers enriched plans of study to highly motivated students
who have the ability to excel academically and the desire to develop
global perspectives. Consistent with the university's aspiration to
"close the gaps" for those from groups who have been historically
under-represented in Texas higher education, the program seeks to
attract and retain a broad and diverse population of students. A successful
Honors experience requires an exceptional commitment from participating
students and faculty. Honors students are challenged with innovative,
participatory, and rigorous learning experiences in a community of
similarly motivated learners. Faculty members provide both discipline-specific
and interdisciplinary instruction as well as facilitate co-curricular
and extracurricular opportunities. Faculty also provide personal mentoring
for and collaborative partnerships with their students. Students and
faculty have a unique opportunity in the Honors Program for development
and recognition of their interests, skills, abilities, and potential.
