This is the repository for the research and scholarship of the students in the KU Honors Program. Each Honors student must complete a capstone project to graduate. Much of the work listed here represents the capstone projects of these students. Research may also be completed in conjunction with faculty advisers as an Independent Study. Creative and visual works are on the page for Honors Student Creative Works.
