Honours degree students are selected on the basis of their performance in the final year of the pass degree. There is no Department of Environmental Science so the honours year and projects are carried out under the auspices of a department in the Faculty, usually agriculture, chemistry, geology, physics or mathematics. The honours year is structured according to principles applied to the science discipline of the thesis supervisor and involves an extended scientific investigation into a scientific problem relating to the environment and some course-work relevant to the project. Approval of each fourth year enrolment must be given by the supervisor and the Environmental Science Coordinator.
