C. DEGREE OPTIONS

The BA Honours German can be taken with Co-operative Education. See section 3.4.4 Co-operative Education Programs for information and requirements.

Notes:

Students interested in applying for Honours should discuss their plans with and seek the advice of the Undergraduate Director. Upon admission each student will be assigned a undergraduate program advisor who will assist with program planning and course selection, and the designation of the thesis supervisor.
It is strongly recommended that students develop a supporting area of focus consisting of at least 12 units (2.0 full-course equivalents) in a closely related Field (such as History 413).
Students will find it to their advantage to have background in one or more of the following Fields: Comparative Literature, English, Greek and Roman Studies, History, Linguistics, Philosophy and Romance Languages.
German 357 and 359 are delivered in English and may be repeated for credit. However, a maximum of 6 units (1.0 full-course equivalent) of German 357 and/or 359 and a maximum of 6 units (1.0 full-course equivalent) from German studies in a different discipline, subject to approval by the School, may be credited towards a degree.
In the final year the student must take German 591 (Honours Project). This will require the preparation of an Honours Thesis under close supervision of the School.
