Resume Honors/Awards Information
The Honors / Awards block of your r閟um� may be included with your
education block if you have fewer than three items to list. However,
a separate heading emphasizes the word honors for the reader who
scans the r閟um�. If you have fewer than three honors, you may wish
to combine relevant activities with honors and include a block
titled HONORS AND ACTIVITIES.
Honors and activities may include:
- Academic honor societies such as Phi Beta Kappa or Phi Kappa Phi
(If the honor society may be unfamiliar to your audience be sure you
specify its nature to avoid confusion with social clubs.)
- Scholarships
- Awards
- Membership and offices held in professional societies
