Bachelor of Education in Physical Eduaction and Health Eduaction with Honours (872)

The grade of Honours is determined by the weighted average of the merit points achieved at the first attempt in all 200-, 300-, and 400-level subjects using the formula:

weighted average mark = formula

(see regulations listed in the Undergraduate Course Rules)

In calculating the above average, the final year thesis shall have a weight of 4.

The Class of Honours will be based upon the weighted average mark achieved according to the following scale:

CLASS I: 75.5 -100% of merit points
CLASS II Division 1: 72.5 - 74.4% of merit points
CLASS II Division 2: 67.5 - 72.4% of merit points

The pattern of progression for the Honours degree conforms to the normal pattern of progression for the Pass degree except that in the Honours degree, EDUP366 replaces an elective in the third year of the course and EDUP430 replaces two electives in the fourth year.

Students who enter the Honours program and fail to achieve the appropriate level of merit points may be eligible for a Bachelor of Education Pass degree
