CLS Honors Courses
Some of the courses in the Clinical Laboratory Science (CLS) Program are designated as Honors Courses so students can continue their contract agreement with the Honors College to enroll in at least six to nine hours of honors credit at the junior and senior levels. Basic prerequisites include enrollment in Honors College with intent to graduate with honors. Honors students enrolled in the Clinical Laboratory Science Program needing additional honors hours through the Honors College will complete a research project involving the investigation of a unique clinical subject such as autopsy, physician shadowing and instruction, or in an advanced area of laboratory science. The project will include library research, reading assignments, observation, reporting of findings, writing a paper, and presentation of the student's work. Honors scholarships from other campuses do not transfer to the HSC.
