Welcome to students in the Davidson Honors College!  

Welcome to the family!

As a current student in the Davidson Honors College, you will have tremendous opportunities for academic, personal, and professional development. You’ll also be part of a vibrant, interdisciplinary community of students, faculty and staff with diverse interests and aspirations, and who represent virtually every academic major at the University of Montana.

In addition to world-class academics, your experience will include experiential learning through internships, service learning, undergraduate research and creative scholarship, and opportunities to travel nationally and internationally. And while DHC students are involved across campus and throughout the community, they are also active in the Honors Student Association, DHC Ambassadors, Dean’s Student Advisory Council, the Living Learning Community, and regional and national honors organizations. UM honors traditions include a fall float trip, weekly Friday morning hikes, monthly tea times, open mic nights, medallion ceremonies on the eve of Commencement each semester, and an annual Evening of Excellence.

Honors students benefit from a passionate team of faculty and staff who provide holistic support for their university experience. This includes dedicated assistance with honors academic advising, career exploration, community engagement, research mentoring, and as applicants for local, national, and internationally competitive scholarships.

Together, honors students form a dynamic, challenging, inspiring community of scholars, connected by their desire to make the most of their university experience and to make meaningful, positive impacts on the world.
