Barrett, The Honors College Thesis/Creative Project Collection
Barrett, The Honors College at Arizona State University proudly showcases the work of undergraduate honors students by sharing this collection exclusively with the ASU community.
Barrett accepts high performing, academically engaged undergraduate students and works with them in collaboration with all of the other academic units at Arizona State University. All Barrett students complete a thesis or creative project which is an opportunity to explore an intellectual interest and produce an original piece of scholarly research. The thesis or creative project is supervised and defended in front of a faculty committee. Students are able to engage with professors who are nationally recognized in their fields and committed to working with honors students. Completing a Barrett thesis or creative project is an opportunity for undergraduate honors students to contribute to the ASU academic community in a meaningful way.

My project goes over the biology of chronic kidney disease, including what CKD is, definitions to understand, the prevalence of it, the signs and symptoms, and the main causes. Then I go over the nutrition guidelines of the disease and the nutrients important to regulate, including sodium, protein, fats and whole grain carbohydrates, potassium, and phosphorus. Next, I write about recipes that I modify to be kidney-friendly and make nutrient analyses for each original recipe and each modified recipe. Finally, I made a video of myself cooking and trying two of the modified recipes.
