Prospectus

The Prospectus for the Honors Project consists of two parts. First, it includes a 750–1000-word description of the project, whose word limit must be strictly observed. This description should include, as well as a discussion of the subject, an explanation of its value and a statement of the thesis (what is hoped to be proven or demonstrated) and of the methodology.

Second, the Prospectus must provide an initial bibliography, including at least 10 annotated secondary sources; the annotations will summarize the contents of each book or article and indicate its relevance to the project.
