The course offers a pathway to higher degree research in arts, humanities and social sciences and graduates are also eligible for up to one year credit toward a related Masters by coursework degree in the Faculty. Completing honours demonstrates your advanced research, analytical and communication skills enhancing employability outcomes. Combined honours Honours studies may be taken as single honours (a single discipline over one year of full-time study), or combined honours (two disciplines over one year of full-time study). Combined honours may be undertaken provided that all honours requirements have been met in both disciplines. Application to undertake combined honours must be made with the support of the school honours coordinators of both disciplines. Combined honours normally take the form of a joint dissertation (50 per cent in each discipline) alongside coursework chosen from the two component disciplines.
