9 of our Psychology and Neuroscience Honors undergraduates, Chloe Berube Altieri, Lillian Dillard, Rachael Kang, Julia Katz, Kenny Le, Alex Martin, Saif Mehyar, Cortland Vis, and Elizabeth Wallace received Honors Thesis Research Grants from the UNC Honors College.
The Honors Thesis Research Grants are intended to help offset the cost of conducting a Senior Honors Thesis and can help cover the cost of equipment, supplies, software, publications, transportation, and other expenses. All of the following awards are made possible through generous gifts to the Honors College.
Congratulations to this year’s recipients!
