The Honors Program at Texas A&M University-Corpus Christi offers enriched plans of study to
highly motivated students who have the ability to excel academically and the desire to develop global perspectives.

Consistent with the University's aspiration to "close the gaps" for those from groups who have been historically under-represented in Texas higher education, the Program seeks to attract and retain a broad and diverse population of students.

A successful Honors experience requires an exceptional commitment from participating students
and faculty. Honors students are challenged with innovative, participatory, and rigorous learning experiences in a community of similarly motivated learners. Faculty members provide both discipline specific and interdisciplinary instruction as well as facilitate co-curricular and extracurricular opportunities. Faculty also provides personal mentoring for and collaborative partnerships with their students.

Students and faculty have a unique opportunity in the Honors Program for development and
recognition of their interests, skills, abilities, and potential.
