Phi Beta Kappa

Championing education in arts and sciences at UND since 1913.

Phi Beta Kappa is the oldest and most prestigious honor society in the liberal arts in the United States. The Society was founded in 1776 at the College of William and Mary, and UND’s chapter was authorized in 1913.

A Rare Honor

Just 10% of US colleges and universities have Phi Beta Kappa chapters. These chapters select only about 10% of their arts and sciences graduate to join.

Notable Members

Phi Beta Kappa members are part of a diverse network of high achievers in liberal arts and sciences education dating back to the nation's founding, including 17 US Presidents.

Membership

Membership is by invitation only and is available to students pursuing a liberal arts degree, normally through the College of Arts and Sciences.
