Honors Tutorial College

The Honors Tutorial College at Ohio University provides unique one-on-one classes with professors on topics of the students choosing for a collaborative learning experience. In these sessions, independent research and final projects per semester were also performed, leading to hundreds of research papers covered, books analyzed, and new skillsets learned. Topics ranged from local climate governance, species distribution models, urban ecology, marine protected areas, environmental justice and society, and ecosystem dynamics.
