Honoris Causa

"Honoris Causa" is a Latin term meaning "for the sake of honor." It refers to an honorary degree awarded by a university to individuals who have made significant contributions to a specific field or society. Unlike regular degrees, recipients do not need to fulfill the typical academic requirements. This honor recognizes their achievements, influence, or humanitarian efforts, celebrating their impact and inspiring others. It highlights the university's appreciation for the individual's work and upholds the institution's values, connecting them to the broader community.
