Russian and Eurasian Studies is proud of the students who have written honors theses. Alumni: if you have a copy of your thesis you could send, we will add it to this collection.

About Honors

A minimum overall GPA in the major of 3.30 for honors and 3.70 for high honors is required, plus a written thesis of 40 to 60 pages. Students who write an honors thesis are required to take an Honors Independent Study (REST 490) in the semester preceding the senior seminar.
