Course code: 3060 + Gippsland, off-campus learning
Applications are made directly to the faculty, not via VTAC or Monash International. The honours degree requires a fourth year of study, to be taken following completion of the normal requirements of the pass degree.
The minimum requirement for admission of candidates to fourth year Social
and Community Welfare honours is the completion of a Bachelor of Social and
Community Welfare or an equivalent degree recognised by the Australian
Institute of Welfare and Community Workers (AIWCW). Students need an average
grade of 70 per cent or better to the value of 24 points at second and
third-year level, at least 18 points of which must be at third-year level.
Students qualified to enter an honours program must normally do so within five
years of completing their undergraduate studies. Students who have completed a
three-year degree at a higher education institution other than Monash
University must provide a certified copy of their academic transcript and
supporting documentation regarding content of their course. To be acceptable
for entry, the relevant school must approve the course content.
A student must complete 48 points, including a thesis, to qualify for the Bachelor of Social and Community Welfare (Honours). Studies may be taken on a full-time or part-time basis, and students undertaking honours by off-campus learning are strongly advised to enrol on a part-time basis.
