Third-year level

Pass

The normal prerequisite for a third-year level subject is successful completion of an approved first-year politics sequence and any two second-year level subjects at any Monash campus.

Honours

As well as fulfilling the requirements for the honours degree laid down by the Faculty of Arts, intending honours students in politics are expected to take extra work in politics (see the introduction to the politics entry). They are expected to take PLT3420 (Political Imagination). This subject should help students gain solid conceptual grounding in key areas of the discipline and in major theoretical debates.
