Honours degree

The term Honours degree has different meanings for different degrees. Most commonly it is an award in connection with undergraduate bachelor's degree variations. For example, in the United States, the four-year Honors bachelor's degree or in the United Kingdom, the three-year Bachelor (with) Honours degree (four years in Scotland), is sometimes indicated by "(Hons)" after the degree abbreviation. It also refers to the rare "postgraduate" consecutive bachelor's degree ''With Honours'' or Baccalaureatus Cum Honore degree with the requirement to first complete a bachelor's degree. In Canada it is abbreviated either "BA hon." or "BSc hon." Very rarely is the term used for the master's degree; for example, the four-year undergraduate degree at Ancient Scottish universities is abbreviated "MA (Hons)".〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Studying for a degree in Arts )
Many universities and colleges offer both honours and non-honours bachelor's degree variation. In most countries, using the undergraduate Honours grading system, the term "Honours" (or "Honors" in the United States) is an academic distinction, which indicates that students must achieve their bachelor's degree with a sufficiently high overall grade point average. In addition, some programs may require more education than non-honours programs. Students who complete all the requirements for an Honours bachelor's degree but do not receive sufficient merit to be awarded Honours will be awarded the non-honours bachelor's degree variation in the same field of studies (also known as Minors, Majors, Pass or Ordinary bachelor's degree), abbreviated "B.A." or "B.Sc." In England, Northern Ireland and Wales, almost all bachelor's degrees are awarded as Honours degrees; a student achieving a passing grade below honours standard also earns the bachelor's degree, but without the honours distinction.
The "postgraduate" Bachelor's degree ''With Honours'' or Baccalaureatus Cum Honore degree is a consecutive academic degree. It’s the continuation of a completed (Honours) Bachelor's degree program in the same field. It requires a minimum of one year of study but may also take longer. The degree allowing students to plan to go on to very high research. It is essential if students' ultimate goal is to study toward a two- or three-year very high research master's degree qualification. A student holding a Baccalaureatus Cum Honore degree also may choose to complete a doctorate or Ph.D. degree program without the requirement to first complete a master's degree. Students are required to undertake a longer high research empirical thesis (Honours Seminar Thesis) combined with a selection of courses from the relevant field of studies. In several universities in some countries, for example, in Canada Baccalaureatus Cum Honore programs have been changed to corresponding master's degree programs.
The term "Honours degree" was originally used in the UK in 1918 when a full British undergraduate degree classification system was developed to distinguish different types of students based on their academic achievements.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Tear up the class system )〕 Other Commonwealth or non-Commonwealth countries such as Australia, Canada, New Zealand, Singapore, South Africa and Hong Kong were influenced by this system.
==England and Wales==
In England and Wales, Bachelor's degrees are normally awarded "with Honours" after three years of study. Some universities may require the completion of a dissertation in the third year. Students can be awarded a pass (or ordinary) degree, usually if they achieve final examination marks below those required for third class honours, but not poor enough for outright failure. This could also result from a failed dissertation, or a degree awarded to a student who was prevented from taking the final examination because of illness (an Aegrotat). There are also four-year undergraduate Master's degrees with Honours. At some universities, Staffordshire University for example, the Honours degree was merely the non-honours degree with a 1-year work placement during the 3rd year.〔I went there〕
