Honors deadlines, forms, and information Available Here
If you are planning to graduate with Honors please contact the department Honors chair immediately since it will take some time for you to complete and submit your Honors registration form. Note that to defend an honors thesis in a given semester requires registration in the semester before.
The Biochemistry Honors Chairs are: Halil.Aydin@colorado.edu and Jeffrey.C.Cameron@colorado.edu (currently on sabbatical for AY 23-24.)
The prospectus submitted with your registration form should be hypothesis driven but need not be long - 1/2 to 1 page is adequate. Remember to present the key background information explaining the justification / impact of the project, the hypothesis you are addressing in your research, and the predictions you are testing. The timeline is mainly an exercise for you and your mentor to plan reasonable goals.
If you have questions, please reach out to the Biochemistry undergraduate program manager, Natalia Johnston at Natalia.Johnston@colorado.edu.
