Honours degree. The term honours degree (or honors 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, than an ordinary, general or pass bachelor's degree.
An honours degree generally requires a higher academic standard than a pass degree, and in some universities a fourth year of study. In some countries, e.g., Australia and Canada, the honours degree should not be confused with the postgraduate bachelor's degree with honours or the baccalaureatus cum honore degree.n honours degree generally requires a higher academic standard than a pass degree, and in some universities a fourth year of study.
