    About

    The Bachelor of Arts (Honours) degree exemplifies the ANU commitment to research-led education. Building on the Bachelor of Arts, which is the most diverse, most flexible, and most popular degree at the Australian National University, Arts Honours provides you with the exciting opportunity to design and acquit your own sophisticated, independent, large-scale research project. Working under the mentorship of the University's internationally renowned research academics, Arts Honours allows you to develop the advanced skills and knowledge that are ideally suited to modern professional life or a higher degree by research.
