Bachelor of Creative Arts (Honours)

University of Wollongong

Type of institution: University/Higher Education Institution
Level: Undergraduate
CRICOS: 00102E

The Bachelor of Creative Arts (Honours) year is for students who have done well throughout their degree. If you have a distinction average or higher, the honors year offers an additional year of study to pursue both critical and creative projects. For your critical work, you will focus on one topic from your undergraduate degree, writing a thesis or exegesis; while for your creative project, you will produce a major body of work in your chosen discipline. In both instances, the honors year allows you to pursue a topic or theme you are interested in with a supervisor who is there to encourage and support you. Potential employers appreciate the honours degree because it demonstrates that students can achieve complex goals, meet deadlines, investigate independently, use resources effectively, and write clearly.
