Honorary degree (Hons) originated in the west and was translated into honorary degree, which mainly exists in Britain and Australia, and its awarding methods and effects are different.

An honorary bachelor's degree is only eligible if you get excellent results during your bachelor's degree. Students who are awarded honorary degrees usually have "more professional knowledge" and "better grades" The reason why the quotation marks are added is that the specific gold content of honorary degrees in different countries is obviously different.

Basic introduction Chinese name: honorary degree mbth: honorary degree distinguished object: honorary degree features: there are obvious differences in gold content in different countries: British honorary degree, Australian degree, British honorary degree (2. 1, etc. ) 20 14 first of all, an honorary degree (see bachelor's degree with honors) is not an honorary degree. Honor is a proper vocabulary, which can be both a noun and an adjective, meaning "a degree research course that is more professional than the ordinary level". In short, it means "more professional (better) and better (better)"; Honourary is an adjective, which means "honor, fame and name". In British universities, the award of bachelor's degree depends on the academic performance of bachelor's degree courses (mostly depends on the two-year average score of universities, Oxford University, Warwick Business School and Sheffield University). After three years of college, different academic achievements are determined through strict screening (such as exams, graduation thesis or various forms of speeches), thus representing different "honor" grades. From high to low, it is: bachelor (first-class honorary degree: the degree with 1st honor, which also represents the "highest honor or first-class honor" awarded by the university), bachelor (second-class honor: 2. 1, upper second-class honor), bachelor (second-class honor: 2.2, lower second-class honor) In other words, any bachelor's degree higher than the degree can be called an "honorary degree". Honor is more of a unit here, just like the first-class medal of honor and the second-class medal of honor. "Excellence" depends more on grades. For example, first-class honor is much higher than second-class honor, while third-class honor means lower level. In fact, Britain's three-year higher education is ahead of the world, mostly because it has invested a lot of money (almost 25%) in education funds. As the second pillar industry in Britain, it guarantees its excellent education quality and teaching efficiency. Therefore, in England (unlike Scotland), less than 5% of college graduates are awarded the mark of "first honor" or "highest honor" every year. More notably, former British Prime Minister David Donald Cameron and his first-class honours degree graduated from Oxford University, while the current Chancellor of the Exchequer george osborne is 2. 1. Relatively speaking, the majors of law, medicine and dentistry (1-3%) are even more difficult to win this honor. Basically, a period of full-time study time of about 9- 12 months (part-time 18-24 months) is considered as a transitional degree. It was not obtained as a key degree in Britain and British Association countries (including Hong Kong) (so the British side does not give job demand to international students with only British graduate degrees, see UK FT International Student Employment, 12 (1)). Therefore, there is no distinction between honor and non-honor, but between passing with excellence and passing with merit. And doctors don't care. See Seattle, Nigel (19 April 20 1 1). The guardian. Australian degree. Bachelor of Arts with Honors in Australia, no subdivision level. Different from Britain, in Australia, the honorary bachelor's degree invites the top 5% of our excellent undergraduate graduates to carry out high-intensity scientific research training in the form of an extra year. This degree is more effective than the research-oriented master's degree and can be simply regarded as an associate doctor. Although it has the effect of direct doctoral study, in Australia, the honorary bachelor's degree is more regarded as a plus item in career, which is highly praised by employers. From corporate boards to successive prime ministers, an honorary bachelor's degree has almost become a standard. (The three recent prime ministers in Australia: Kevin Rudd-Bachelor of Arts with Honors from Australian National University, Bachelor of Laws with Honors from Gillard-Melbourne University, and Bachelor of Laws with Honors from tony abbott-Sydney University) Admission to the honorary bachelor program is based on the performance of their bachelor programs, and sometimes detailed research outlines are needed for reference. The more you choose a top university, the more strict it is. However, even in ordinary universities in Australia, the admission standard of honorary bachelor is higher than that of graduate students in top universities in Australia. Generally speaking, the honorary bachelor's degree is only open to undergraduates in our school. The number of undergraduates in Australian foreign schools is very limited, and the selection requirements are higher. The total number of students studying in one year is controlled in single digits, so the competition is particularly fierce. A year's study of Honors Bachelor usually includes four to five research topics and a high-quality 20,000-word thesis, which is very stressful. Research topics are usually taught in small classes by top professors in our school, covering all fields of research. The amount of papers read every week and various heavy academic tasks also make the voluntary dropout rate of honorary bachelor extremely high. The results of the honorary bachelor's degree are composed of research results and papers, and the final results are divided into first-class honorary bachelor, second-class honorary bachelor, second-class honorary bachelor and third-class honorary bachelor. The first-class honours bachelor usually has only 1 to two graduates in one session, and the number is strictly controlled, so it is also regarded as a golden stepping stone to enter the Australian upper class. In Australia and European and American countries, the recognition of Australian honorary bachelor is very high, from doctors of American Ivy League to executives of multinational companies, you can find honorary bachelor's figure. In addition, it is worth noting that for students of law, medicine and engineering, due to the long undergraduate study time, they will choose an honorary bachelor's degree before the start of last semester to study in the way of replacing a simple teaching course. Generally speaking, the significance of Australian Honorary Bachelor in Australian culture is not only a degree, but also a symbol of success and proof of ability.
