Handbook

The aim of Honours is to extend the students' grasp of the principles and practice of their subject, and to develop their ability to conduct independent research.

The Honours course provides units in research design and the opportunity to carry out a piece of empirical research under supervision. The thesis and poster reporting the empirical research represent more than half of the (Honours) fourth year work.

An Honours qualification of 2A (or suitable equivalent) is normally required for admission to higher research degree study.
