Course Handbook

List of Honours Methods

Section 29 of the University of Wollongong Act (1989) stipulates that the University Council is the approving authority for all amendments to University Rules including the list of awards and degrees, schedule of minors and list of honours methods. Following the Course Approval processes, each year consequential amendments are proposed to the list of awards and degrees, which includes additions and amendments to courses and minor studies to Section 12: Awards and Degrees of the University, Appendix 2: List of each Honours Method, and Appendix 3: Schedule of Minor Studies of the General Course Rules, to reflect approved course offerings as at 1 January of each year. These amendments are submitted to Council for approval. On approval, the list is updated in the General Course Rules and handbook pages.

This page lists all honours level qualifications at UOW, categorised by their grading calculation method. This information may change for each year. UOW uses one of four methods to calculate the honours grade of a course awarded with honours. Please refer to Section 8.27 from the General Course Rules on how each method is calculated.
