In recognition of outstanding academic excellence, the college recommends the bachelors degree With Distinction, With High Distinction and With Highest Distinction. Distinction and High Distinction may be recommended on the basis of a student’s academic record alone although they may be awarded on the basis of the combination of GPA and a thesis. Highest Distinction requires a thesis.
For completion of the thesis, select at least one of the faculty affiliated with the Microbiology Program Faculty Contacts to serve as a thesis advisor. If you have questions, please contact the Microbiology Program Academic Success Coordinator, Dr. Brandi Sigmon.
