Whatever your topic, being able to demonstrate your ability to achieve a complex goal, meet deadlines, investigate independently, use resources effectively and write coherently will be highly regarded by potential employers.
The honours year has two functions; as an in-depth project at the end of undergraduate study and as a bridge between undergraduate study and advanced research.
See the course handbook for more information.
