Bachelor of Arts (Languages) (Honours)
The Bachelor of Arts (Languages) honours year is both a preparation for postgraduate study and a capstone to an undergraduate degree. Honours can be the culmination of your formal education, an experience that extends your intellectual range, hones your research abilities, as well as analytical and communication techniques, and helps you to develop the personal and professional skills needed to see a research project through to completion.
Honours can also be the first step on a path to a career as an academic or professional researcher. The honours year comprises seminar classes and works toward a short thesis on an independent research project under the supervision of an academic staff member who is an expert in the field of your research.
Please note: The units of study listed below are subject to change and are to be used as a guide only. This course is open to external applicants.
