SCHOLAR'S ELECTIVES

Scholar’s Electives at Huron is a select community of students working collaboratively in an enriched learning environment. Scholar’s Electives students enrol in this program in addition to their Honors degree courses. Students develop transferable research skills through interdisciplinary coursework, participation in workshops, working one-on-one with faculty mentors to develop and conduct a research project, and the opportunity to communicate their research through conference presentations and publications.
