Psychology Honours Thesis

The research project, leading to the honours thesis, represents a significant proportion of the workload in the Honours program and will contribute 50% of the students’ final mark. The primary aim of this part of the Honours program is to develop students’ skills as researchers. The research project also represents an opportunity for students to learn, in depth, about a particular topic area in psychology. Students will have the opportunity to conduct empirical research within a range of broad topics. The focus of the project will develop (at least to some extent) as a function of the Supervisor’s areas of expertise and interest.
