Ohio State is in the process of revising websites and program materials to accurately reflect compliance with the law. While this work occurs, language referencing protected class status or other activities prohibited by Ohio Senate Bill 1 may still appear in some places. However, all programs and activities are being administered in compliance with federal and state law.

Honors Program

Doug Downey

Welcome to the Honors Program in the Department of Sociology. I invite you to experience the excitement of our discipline by planning challenging coursework (honors contract) or by becoming involved with research (honors thesis or research with a faculty member). The department has a long history of providing excellent honors opportunities and facilitating students' successful competition for research scholarships and awards. I hope you will contact me to learn more about Honors in the Department of Sociology.
