Current UT Students
If you are interested in joining the Turing Scholars Honors Program and have excelled in your current CS and math courses, please consider the following opportunities.
Join the Turing Scholars program
Current entry-level CS majors may apply for admission to the Turing Scholars Honors Program by submitting this online application, and then emailing a resume to the address on the online application. Applications will be accepted until December 10, 2024 for students wanting to begin the program in Spring 2024. Successful applicants will be placed in honors courses as appropriate for their background.
Enroll in individual honors courses
Our CS honors courses typically have a limited number of spaces available for non-Turing Scholars. Any strong student is welcome to apply for enrollment.
You may fill out a request for each CS honors course that you wish to take. Separate requests are needed because the forms are evaluated by the individual faculty members who teach the course. In some cases, faculty may ask you to also make an appointment for a brief interview.
If you are selected for enrollment in a CS honors course, the CS Advising Center will add you to the course and email you (you need not be present for the add).
Students interested in applying for the Turing Scholars Honors Program are particularly encouraged to apply for individual CS honors courses. These courses not only allow you to explore the Turing Scholars program, but a strong performance in these classes greatly enhances your chances of being admitted to the Turing Scholars Program.
