The Honours Year offers you the opportunity of studying in detail aspects of European Studies which particularly interest you. Hence we encourage you to take advantage of the flexibility within the Discipline Group of European Languages and Studies to structure your study around your areas of interest. You can complete Honours in European Studies, and you can include language units as well as European Studies units.
It is possible to begin Honours in first semeser and complete it over one calendar year; or you can enrole in second semester and continue over the summer vacation completing in first semester the following year. Or, if you prefer to work part-time while completing Honours, your course can be completed over three or four semesters.
Students interested in doing Honours in European Studies should contact the Honours Coordinator for a preliminary discussion. If you are interested in undertaking Honours but are not sure of your eligibility, contact A/Professor Morgan.
