Course description

The focus of the Honours Program is to develop research skills through the completion of a research project/thesis. Students, closely guided by their supervisor, engage in the scientific research process to: identify a research topic informed by a critical review of literature, understand relevant ethical requirements, collect/analyse data, prepare a manuscript that is ready or near ready for publication in a peer-reviewed journal, and articulate translational elements of the research project. Upon successful completion, students may be eligible for entry to a research higher degree program depending on class of Honours.
