If you are a student who loves to learn, is curious about the world, and is ready to try something new, you should apply to join the Honors Program. Our program curriculum challenges you through seminar-style classes and motivates you to gain new experiences through participating in research, study abroad, internships, and more. We offer an environment in which one can build community within the larger University of Iowa setting that provides personal guidance, challenge with flexibility, and welcomes you to explore your interests. We value self-discovery and global awareness and help you during your path towards both while at Iowa.
