Can I write a senior honors thesis in political science?
Yes. In fact, there are two different programs through which you can write a political science honors thesis. One is the Political Science Department honors program, which is open to qualified students. The application process for this program takes place during the spring semester of the junior year. The thesis itself is a two-semester project that counts as one course during each semester of the senior year. For details, see the link entitled “Department Honors Thesis” on the Political Science Department web page. Alternatively, students can write a political science thesis within the framework of the College Honors Program. Note, however, that College Honors students who wish to work with a political science faculty advisor must gain approval for their proposed thesis through the same process as students in the department honors program.
