The Honors Program at Prairie View A&M University is designed to provide a variety of scholarly activities and advanced courses for outstanding undergraduate students who value and seek rigorous academic challenges. The Honors Program continues to build on its established legacy and profound history of academic excellence, creating a scholarly atmosphere for current and future students.

Students selected as participants are provided a framework for global leadership including a foreign language class of Chinese or Spanish.
