Urban Education: (Re) Defined

The University Honors Program centrally engages Portland State's motto, "Let Knowledge Serve the City." University Honors builds on Portland State’s institutional commitment to community engagement, internationalization, and its location in downtown Portland. The program serves high-achieving, academically-motivated students by providing an engaged and challenging educational experience using the city of Portland as a laboratory for sustainable, urban living. First-generation college students and students of diverse backgrounds are especially encouraged to apply to the program.
