To receive honors in the History Department, undergraduate students must complete a [[senior thesis]]. This document is usually around 50-80 pages, and must include substantial original research. Students writing theses either take seminars or work independently with individual advisors. While one cannot receive honors without writing a thesis, it is not, however, a graduation requirement.
 
 
 
===Honors and Awards===
 
 
 
Those theses receiving honors must not constitute more than 10% of the number of history majors in a given year. In addition to honors, the history department awards several prizes for theses and other work of note. These include:
 
 
 
*The [[Lily Prize]]
 
*The [[Albert Marion Elsberg Prize]]
