The MDiv may be taken with Honours without extra study. Prospective Honours candidates should discuss their course with the UFT Dean. Honours students must a) complete 2 of their Specialised units at postgraduate level and achieve a Distinction or higher in both, and b) include a 12000 word research essay (worth 30 points). Both requirements must be in the area of specialisation chosen for Honours. The level of Honours attained is decided by the MCD on the basis of the results obtained in the two units and the essay. Students who do not obtain at least a Lower Second Class Honours may be awarded the Pass degree. Honours provides a pathway to postgraduate research, either through a Master’s degree, or in the case of First Class Honours graduates, directly to doctoral research.
