The Firestone Medal is awarded to seniors in recognition of excellence in undergraduate research. The Program on Urban Studies, along with other Departments in the School of Humanities and Sciences, nominate students who have completed outstanding honors projects in the social, physical, and natural sciences. The Coterminal Degree Program enables Stanford undergraduates to complete a bachelor's and a master's degree simultaneously, in the same or different departments. Urban Studies majors have entered and developed coterminal programs in a number of University departments, including the departments of Anthropology and Sociology, and the School of Education. Information and applications for coterm programs are available at the Undergraduate Advising Office in Sweet Hall.
