- Honours degree has various meanings in the context of different degrees and education systems. Most commonly it refers to a variant of the undergraduate bachelor's degree containing a larger volume of material or a higher standard of study, or both, rather than an "ordinary", "general" or "pass" bachelor's degree. Honours degrees are sometimes indicated by "Hons" after the degree abbreviation, with various punctuation according to local custom, e.g. "BA (Hons)", "B.A., Hons", etc. In Canada, honours degrees may be indicated with an "H" preceding the degree abbreviation, e.g. "HBA" for Honours Bachelor of Arts or Honours Business Administration. Examples of honours degree include the honors bachelor's degree in the United States; the bachelor's degree with honours in the United Kingdom, Bangladesh, Hong Kong, and India; the honours bachelor's degree in Ireland; the bachelor with honours and bachelor honours degree in New Zealand; the bachelor with honours and honours bachelor's degree in Canada; and the bachelor honours degree in Australia. In South Africa the bachelor honours degree is a postgraduate degree that follows on from the completion of a bachelor's degree. The undergraduate master of arts degree awarded by the ancient universities of Scotland in place of the bachelor of arts may be awarded as an honours or non-honours degree; these are at the same level as equivalent bachelor's degrees. At master's level, the integrated master's degrees in British universities, which students enter at the same level as bachelor's degrees, are also honours degrees. Many universities and colleges offer both honours and non-honours bachelor's degrees. In most countries where honours degrees are granted, they imply a higher level of achievement than a non-honours degree. In some countries (e.g. Australia), an honours degree may also involve a longer period of study than a non-honours degree. Students who complete all the requirements for a non-honours bachelor's degree but do not receive sufficient merit to be awarded an honours degree would normally be awarded a non-honours degree (sometimes known as a "pass", "general" or "ordinary" degree), although students who do not complete the requirements for an integrated master's honours degree may receive a bachelor's honours degree. In England, Northern Ireland and Wales, almost all bachelor's degrees are awarded as honours degrees; in contrast, honours degrees are rarely awarded in the United States. The current British undergraduate degree classification system, with its division into first, upper and lower second, and third class honours, was developed in 1918 to distinguish between students on the basis of their academic achievement. The concept of an "honours" degree goes back much further than this, however, as there were examinations for honours in the original regulations of the University of London in 1839, and Nevil Maskelyne being recorded as taking a bachelor's degree with honours at Cambridge in 1754. Other countries influenced by this system include Australia, Brunei, Canada, New Zealand, Malta, Singapore, South Africa and Hong Kong. (en)
- Un Honours Degree (traduit par baccalauréat spécialisé au Canada, abrégé Hons ou BA (Hons), Honors aux États-Unis) est un de recherche, attribué dans la majorité des pays anglo-saxons, principalement aux États-Unis, Royaume-Uni, Australie, Nouvelle-Zélande, Canada et Afrique du Sud. Un Honours Degree vise à former l'étudiant universitaire en possession d'un Bachelor's Degree au cadre de la recherche dans un domaine spécifique, et est généralement suivi pour pouvoir accéder à un programme de doctorat ultérieur. Le cours est composé de certaines unités de recherche ainsi que de la réalisation d'une thèse de recherche originale, et la durée du cours est généralement d'un an à temps plein ou de deux ans à mi-temps. Il ne faut pas confondre ce titre avec les mentions aux diplômes des établissements anglophones, lesquels utilisent souvent le terme Honours pour qualifier les hautes réalisations académiques (First Class Honours, Second Class Honours, Third Class).
