How do I
qualify for
Honours?
The Faculty of Science requires that to enrol in an Honours unit
of study you must have satisfied all the requirements for a pass
degree and be considered by the Head of School to have the
required aptitude and knowledge for Honours. In the School
of Biological Sciences, the Head’s decision is based on advice
given by the Honours Executive Committee. A prospective
student should have:
––
a major in one of the Life Sciences (not necessarily Biology);
––
an average grade of at least a Credit in 12 or more credit
points of Senior Life Sciences subjects;
––
a minimum WAM (weighted average mark) of 65 for all
Intermediate and Senior units of study attempted; and
––
you must have a provisional acceptance of project
supervision by at least one academic (School enrolment
form).
