Sponsored by Adobe, HonorsX is an interdisciplinary program. Students will be part of a cohort consisting of students from different majors to propose new solutions to social problems. The program is co-taught by faculty from different majors/colleges across campus, bringing students the opportunity to network with mentors from industry professionals and experts. HonorsX values different backgrounds and experiences and centers the vision and voice of students in their own learning journey.

Students will have the opportunity to apply knowledge from their major and build skills outside of their major, take initiative to solve social problems of their choice, receive mentorship from industry mentors and former HonorsX student peer mentors, network with peers, faculty, and experts from different fields, and acquire practical skills to found own start-up, apply for graduate school, internships, and fellowships.
