Honours degrees are recognised as a qualification beyond a Bachelor degree. They include a substantial personal study program.
Honours degrees can either be integrated into a degree or are taken as an additional one-year program.
You can explore RSU Course Finder to find your chosen degree (or degrees) and check out the Honours information within those pages.
