More than just an ‘A’
The Weber State University Honors Program is available to students enrolled in the Radiologic Sciences department.
Being an Honors student means more than the distinction of being able to do top-level work. It allows you to expand your studies and build upon acquired knowledge. You’ll have the opportunity to do fun and creative projects that put your learning into action.
As an Honors student, you also have the opportunity to enroll in stimulating classes outside of your chosen profession but in areas of interest. The amount of extra time invested in Honors classes complements your personal and professional goals and provides a sense of accomplishment and satisfaction in your efforts.
