Coker’s Honors Program
How can you grow?
At Coker University, Honors students are encouraged to pursue their interests. Doing well in classes is just the beginning for an Honors student. Students are involved in campus leadership, while others help professors on nationally recognized research projects. Others get involved with service projects that aid local and global communities. Honors students can cultivate their global citizenship through study-away experiences. Those who are drawn to artistic fields are encouraged to explore their creativity through performances and projects.
The Honors Program cultivates leadership development, personal growth, and reflective citizenship through a combination of coursework, co-curricular experiences and independent exploration. And when the time comes, their skills and experiences help Honor students stand out to employers or graduate schools.
All Honors students develop their own paths and tell their own stories.
