Honors projects are a one-semester endeavor, typically aiming toward an original thesis paper (or equivalent scholarly or creative work) approximately 20-25 pages in length, whose topic is closely related to the student\u2019s humanities core area. Thesis projects may be supervised by a faculty member in the student\u2019s core area or by another faculty member with expertise relevant to the topic. In either case, the supervisory\/mentoring role will be by arrangement between the student, MSH advisors, and the faculty member being solicited. All topics and supervisors are to be approved by the DUS. Juniors interested in the MSH Honors option must apply with the program director before fall of their senior year. The application requires development of an approved research proposal with an accompanying mentorship plan.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>While writing the thesis, students may enroll in the MSH Independent Research course (AS 145.510 in the Fall and AS 145.511 in the Spring, 1-3 credits). These credits are taken in addition to the 12 credits of the normal major requirements and do not count as an elective or advanced course.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>These requirements apply to any student who entered Johns Hopkins University before fall 2021.
