honors thesis
Senior research project
An honors thesis is an extended research project completed by undergraduate students in a specialized program, typically in their final year.
It requires original scholarship, a faculty advisor, and often a formal defense before a committee.
Completing one distinguishes a student's degree: She graduated with honors after defending her thesis on medieval trade routes.
