As part of our curriculum modernization, all faculty members participate in the honours program. To help students make informed choices, a document will be provided to students applying to Honours outlining faculty research areas and the types of honours theses that they supervise.

What You Need to Do:

Information regarding the Honours application process (including forms and deadlines) will be provided to all HuBi students by Winter semester break. In addition to an Honours application form, as part of the application, you will also submit a Supervisory Selection Form which serves to provide ranked list of your top three preferred supervisors. 

Deadline: usually late-March
Submit to: bcadvice@mun.ca

Selection Process:

A departmental committee will review submissions and assign students to supervisors, prioritizing first choices where possible while also considering previous research experience. Assignments will be released in April, giving students time to consult with their supervisors before the summer break to ensure a smooth transition into September.

Make sure to reach out to potential supervisors if you have any questions—this is your opportunity to explore research that excites you!
