The Bachelor of Social Science with Honours 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 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 thesis. Under the Honours program, you'll be encouraged to extend your specialised study in either Health and Social Policy, Development or Environment and Society, and the program can be individually supervised across relevant UQ schools or research centres.
