School of Politics and International Relations · ANU College of Arts and Social Sciences
Honours in the School of Politics and International Relations requires two elective 6 unit courses, in addition to the core 12 unit course in Research Training. The contents of this elective course change from year to year, with the School inviting different academic experts to contribute their expertise to Honours teaching. The common feature each year is an advanced seminar with expert researchers as instructors. The course instructs students in advanced research skills required by Honours students. Student numbers are kept small to maximise the impact and benefits for students.
