| Research Abstract |
This study examines the distinctive features of special educational programs designed for high-achieving students in the research universities in US, Australia, Canada, UK, China, and Japan. Such special programs are known as "honors programs". Honors programs put emphasis on the leadership and international experience to enhance their learning motivation. Through the programs, students of the public or national universities provide a lot of learning supports with students as much as in small private colleges. These universities can attract the best and brightest students and facilitate them to remain studying at the graduate programs of the institutions. Thus Honors program is becoming the strategic tools for the management of semi-top ranked public universities.
