Roxbury Community College’s Commonwealth Honors Program offers academically motivated students a stimulating, challenging, and rewarding educational experience that supports critical thinking and innovation through a student-centered curriculum. Students who qualify for the program get the opportunity to enroll in honors courses, complete honors projects in non-honors courses, engage in independent, multi-disciplinary research, get more one-on-one time with faculty mentors, and attend and present their research at conferences such as RCC’s Honors Showcase, the Massachusetts Undergraduate Research Conference (Mass URC), and the Northeastern Regional Honors Conference. Upon successful completion of the program, students will be granted the title of Commonwealth Honors Scholar and are guaranteed acceptance into an honors program at any of the public colleges or universities in Massachusetts.
