Course Description

Take a deep dive into your specialty in social sciences and develop your research skills and knowledge, while gaining a valuable additional qualification which will differentiate you in the job market. The Bachelor of Social Science with Honours Degree is a single year of full-time (or part time equivalent) advanced level study where you'll apply your research skills in the humanities and social sciences. Your Honours Degree program will combine a flexible mix of coursework and independent study, during which you'll prepare and undertake an approved independent social science research project and submit a formal Honours Degree thesis. Under the Honours Degree program, you'll be encouraged to extend your specialised study in either Health and Society, Social and Public Policy, Development or Environment and Society, and the program can be individually supervised across relevant UQ schools or research centres. The program will allow you to develop, extend and consolidate your knowledge and skills in social science theory and research in relation to your specialisation area. It's a valuable additional qualification on entering the job market. If you excel through the Honours Degree program, you'll have the opportunity to progress onto a Master of Philosophy or further postgraduate study.
