High-achieving undergraduate students have the opportunity to enter this one year honours programme. This degree can provide accelerated entry into masters or doctoral study or enhance practice or employment opportunities. Potential students will be identified at the end of their second year of the Bachelor of Health Science, where they will be encouraged to gain the necessary entry requirements during their third year of study. If students achieve the criteria they will be eligible to enter the Bachelor of Health Science (Honours) on completion of their undergraduate degree.

The BHSc(Hons) has a specific pathway for psychology students, who can add two years’ postgraduate study to their honours degree in order to meet registration board requirements.
