Exceptional Opportunities for Exceptional Students

UW-Parkside Honors Programs

UW-Parkside encourages and rewards students for academic excellence and civic competency. The Honors Program has two tracks, academic honors and civic honors. Highly motivated students can pursue both tracks. The Honors program provides integrated and challenging learning opportunities allowing students to go beyond normal course requirements and tailor their learning experiences to achieve their highest potential. Students pursuing civic honors integrate their coursework and college experience with civic issues which they are passionate about.
