Convener: Dr Colin Jeffcott

In the Faculty of Asian Studies at the ANU, an Honours year is an opportunity for those who have completed a good pass degree to do independent research on a chosen topic in one of the world's leading universities in the study of Asia. As an Honours student you have access to the ANU's wealth of Asian expertise across disciplines and to the great holdings of the University and the National libraries. You will have expert supervisory guidance and you will share your experience with other Honours students in the Faculty, working in a variety of disciplines on many of the countries of Asia. As a member of the ANU Asia research community, you will also be in touch with the latest thinking on many issues as expressed by visitors and ANU people in the University's frequent seminars, special lectures and conferences on Asia. Students intending to take an honours degree should plan to take a preparatory course such as; History and Theory (HIST2110), the Pre-Honours Research Seminar (ASIA3010), or Knowledge and Society (ASIA3009), in the year prior to their honours year.
