In the final year of the Honours program the student must take Philosophy 590 (Honours Thesis). This will require the preparation of an Honours Thesis under close departmental supervision. In addition to the academic requirements, the Honours Thesis grade must be at least "A" or "A-" if the Department is to recommend the candidate for First Class Honours, and must be at least "B-" if the candidate is to be recommended for Honours.

A copy of the thesis, in a binding specified by the Department, is to be prepared for the Departmental Library.

Students should bear in mind the Faculty requirements concerning the general distribution of courses.
