Meet the 2026–27 CHHS Honors Program students!

The semester has just begun, and students are already exploring the determinants of health and partnering with community agencies to identify health and human services needs. Their work—from developing problem statements and conducting needs assessments—will lead to community-focused initiatives implemented in the spring.

During introductions, students asked: “What is the benefit of being an Honors student?”

CHHS faculty, staff, students, and alumni—help us answer! Share the power of the Honors experience in the comments.
