The honors year in science is a prestigious and well-respected extension of undergraduate studies that you can pursue after completing your degree.
This program is ideal for undergraduates focusing on a single major.
It offers a distinctive chance to develop your research skills while applying theoretical knowledge gained during your bachelor's studies.
A science honors year is valued not just in academic circles but also in professional sectors that prize laboratory expertise and analytical thinking.
You can pursue honors in any scientific discipline, crafting a research plan in your preferred field with guidance from academic supervisors.
Your research may span multiple scientific areas (such as physiology and biology), and depending on your project's requirements, you might need to take experimental design courses or receive specialized training for specific equipment.

Qualification Requirements
To qualify for admission to the Bachelor of Science (Honours), you must:
have qualified for or be a graduate with a Bachelor of Science degree or equivalent from the University of Sydney or equivalent qualification from another tertiary institution,
have completed a relevant major (i.e. minimum of 24 credit points of 3000-level units of study) relating to the intended Honours discipline,
have achieved a Weighted Average Mark (WAM) of at least 65.00 or have a credit average (65.00) in 48 credit points of relevant* 2000-level and 3000-level units of study, and
satisfy any additional criteria set by the relevant Head of School or Discipline.
The University's Coursework Rule requires Bachelor of Science (Honours) students to complete their Honours program within 10 years of the commencement of their original qualifying Bachelor of Science degree (or equivalent). As such, if your original Bachelor of Science degree (or equivalent) was commenced more than 10 years ago or close to 10 years ago, you may be ineligible for admission.
Applicants whose original Bachelor of Science degree (or equivalent) was commenced more than 10 years ago or close to 10 years ago are strongly recommended to seek advice from the Admissions Office prior to submitting an application for Bachelor of Science (Honours). The Admissions Office will consult and confer with the relevant contacts in the Faculty of Science and the relevant School as appropriate.
Please note that, in some Schools and Disciplines, the minimum WAM requirement is higher than 65.00, particularly where entry is very competitive. For example, a minimum WAM of 75.00 is generally required for entry into Honours in Psychology.
* Relevant units of study must be nominated by the School or Discipline and must be accompanied by strong written support from the School or Discipline.
Willingness of a member of academic staff to act as your supervisor does not guarantee entry into Honours. However, admission into Honours is subject to an appropriate supervisor and project being available.
TOEFL-IBT- A minimum result of 85 overall including a minimum result of 17 in Reading, Listening and Speaking and 19 in Writing
