Students of outstanding merit: Deans List fellows

The faculty operates a Dean's List Fellowship Scheme which recognises academic excellence. This scheme is separate from the Bachelor of Science (Science Scholar Program). Dean's list status is reviewed at the end of each year, and fellows are entitled to an annual fellowship award and academic support during the time they are enrolled in their undergraduate studies. They are also given the opportunity to pursue studies which can be tailored individually to meet their particular interests and aspirations.

The individual study program for each fellow is determined by the faculty, through its dean's list coordinators, after full discussion between the fellow and a coordinator, and any amendments to the program must be approved by a coordinator, prior to faculty approval being given. A mentor, being a senior member of academic staff, is appointed for each fellow, and the role of this mentor is to be available to provide guidance, academic support and encouragement.

The study program for an individual fellow is designed to offer a wider and/or deeper study experience than that afforded by the standard course. Fellows may take additional subjects above the normal requirement which are chosen on the basis of individual interest.
