ENG 497TUT - Honors Thesis


Honors theses allow students to conduct sustained research in close consultation with a faculty member. The English Department offers an honors program for serious students who enjoy doing intensive work and would like the challenge and excitement of exchanging ideas and research with fellow students and instructors in a seminar setting. The resulting thesis will be an independent scholarly or creative work of 30-35 pages. English majors have written honors theses on such topics as pulp fiction, radical Islamophobia, comic books as literature, and colonialism in Irish literature, and on such key literary figures as Chaucer, Shakespeare, John Bunyan, Milton, Nathaniel Hawthorne, Zora Neale Hurston, Sylvia Plath, and Edith Wharton.
