If you've excelled in your Bachelor of Politics, Philosophy and Economics degree, you should consider an honours year to gain an in-depth understanding of a topic that interests you. The honours research topics available are varied and negotiable: if you are passionate about a topic and want to find answers, you'll be encouraged and supported to do so.

 

Whatever your topic, being able to demonstrate your ability to achieve a complex goal, meet deadlines, investigate independently, use resources effectively and write coherently will be highly regarded by potential employers.

 

The honours year has two functions; as an in-depth project at the end of undergraduate study and as a bridge between undergraduate study and advanced research.
