- Students and mentors meet as they see fit. The thesis is approximately 25 pages, plus a bibliography.
- It is something like a seminar paper, only longer, better written, and better researched: the closest thing to a publishable paper that the student can produce.
- Once the paper is complete, the mentor simply approves the thesis and gives the student a Pass grade for the Thesis course, Engl. 303.1Q. No signatures are required.
- The deadline for submission of a thesis is at the end of the semester; however, if the student is graduating that semester, he or she should submit their thesis by Dec. 1 or May 1 in order for the honors designation to appear on their transcript on time.
- Students should submit a paper copy to Renee Philippi in NAC 6/316 and an electronic copy to Renee Philippi (rmphilippi@ccny.cuny.edu) and to Prof. Robert Higney (rhigney@ccny.cuny.edu).
- No need for the thesis to be bound.
