AL/SC Honors Program (Minor)
In the Glynn Family Honors Program, select Notre Dame undergraduates engage in rigorous academic coursework and original research as part of an interdisciplinary community of scholars.
Glynn Scholars complete University core requirements in exclusive, small seminars while also pursuing a major or majors in the College of Arts and Letters, the College of Science, the Keough School of Global Affairs, or the School of Architecture. They develop meaningful mentoring relationships with some of the University’s top professors as they conduct research either inside or beyond their major, culminating in a senior thesis. Scholars have access to special advising, research and career mentoring, and generous research funding.
When Glynn Scholars graduate from Notre Dame, they are well prepared for competitive fellowships, elite Ph.D. programs, top medical and law schools, prestigious service programs, and fulfilling careers in business and industry.
