Honors Center Mission

The mission of the Florida Agricultural and Mechanical University Honors Center is to provide a series of challenging courses and academic enhancement experiences for undergraduate students who excel.  Enhancement of academic performance in critical thinking skills, in essence, will lead to consummate intellectual engagement and strong research orientation as a launch to both graduate and professional schools, as well as career paths.  The center stresses four major areas of concentration: academic achievement, development of leadership potential, community service, and cultural enrichment.

  2. To provide mentoring, nurturing, and academic support to assist students in achieving their full potentials.
  3. To provide opportunities for internships and service-learning involvement.

As an Honors College, it endeavors to become the flagship of the University, providing a premier learning environment for students through a commitment to excellence in education.
