Honors Initiatives

Contributions to these initiatives expand honors students' opportunities. To donate to these initiatives or for more information, contact Dean Andrea Nevins, Ph.D., M.F.A., at andrshaw@nova.edu.

The Passport Project

Support the Passport Project, an initiative to provide students equitable access to travel study opportunities. Many students dream of traveling abroad but lack the funds to turn this dream into reality. With your help, we can cover the costs of travel study trips to give students who have never been able to travel abroad the opportunity to do so.

Creating Change

Collaborate with us through Creating Change, a unique opportunity for organizations, particularly not-for-profits, to benefit from the intellect and creativity of students and faculty in the Honors College. Under faculty guidance, specially selected honors students work on Change Teams that spend six to eight weeks developing solutions to an organization’s challenges or crafting innovative ideas to help an organization pursue a new initiative to help the community.

Undergraduate Student Symposium

Sponsor the Undergraduate Student Symposium (USS)—NSU's annual showcase of undergraduate student research and creativity. Your sponsorship will foster the exchange of knowledge and ideas and provide honors students with essential resources to conduct innovative research and creative projects. Sponsors may choose from different levels to receive tiered benefits like naming rights, publicity, and more.

Distinguished Speakers Series

Contribute to the Distinguished Speakers Series to help us bring renowned leaders from different fields to the NSU campus for engaging lectures with students, faculty, and the broader community. Past speakers include Spike Lee, Archbishop Desmond Tutu, and Erin Brockovich.

Crowdfunding

The Honors College may host month-long crowdfunding campaigns throughout the year to raise money for a specific area or initiative within the college, like mental health awareness, travel or research needs, and student awards. There are no active crowdfunding campaigns at this time. Check back periodically.

"As a two-time study abroad student, the Honors College has contributed greatly towards my experiences. Besides helping me financially towards spending a summer in Seoul, South Korea, I was also able to participate in a week-long trip to London, England, by enrolling in the honors Medical London course."

-Kathy Yanes Perez, B.S. in Psychology
