Turn high-achieving into a higher degree

There are many reasons we encourage graduates to apply for an honours year. You might want to build the necessary foundations for postgraduate research. You could be seeking answers to questions no one else is asking in the music world. Perhaps you’re pursuing advanced creative and communication skills to gain a competitive edge in the industry.

Entry into honours is selective and the work at this level is challenging. You should discuss your eligibility with the Honours Convenor, then lodge an expression of interest with the Faculty of Arts, Business, Law and Economics.

What will you do?

• Attend regular classes for advanced coursework.
• Partner with an academic mentor who’ll support and encourage your intellectual development.
• Produce an extended piece of work (thesis) on a chosen topic.
• Demonstrate the ability to independently achieve complex goals.
