Renewal of registration

  1. Subject to exceptions approved by the Dean, on the recommendation of the head of department, and in the case of distance education where the Dean formulates the stipulations that will apply, a student may not sit for an examination for the honours degree more than twice in the same module.
  2. A student for an honours degree must complete his or her study, in the case of full-time students, within two years and, in the case of after-hours students, within three years of first registering for the degree and, in the case of distance education students, within the period stipulated by the Dean. Under special circumstances, the Dean, on the recommendation of the head of department, may give approval for a limited extension of this period.

In calculating marks, General Regulation G.12.2 applies.

Apart from the prescribed coursework, a research project is an integral part of the study.

Toelatingsvereistes

  •  'n toepaslike baccalaureus-graad met Wiskundige Statistiek op die 300-vlak word vereis.
  • Vir BScHons in Wiskundige Statistiek, 'n gemiddelde punt van 65% of meer,in Wiskundige statistiek oor die 300-vlak of,  in 'n ekwivalente statistiese module (s) by 'n geakkrediteerde instelling word vereis.
  •  Benewens die verbygaan van die kernmodules, WST 312 word ook vereis as voorvereiste vir BScHons en BComHons in Wiskundige Statistiek.
  •  Studente van ander geakkrediteerde instellings moet voldoen aan dieselfde vereistes gebaseer op gelykwaardige modules op hul instellings. Daarbenewens studente van ander geakkrediteerde instellings moet ook 'n ingang evaluering.
  • Studente getalle is beperk tot 'n maksimum van 40, gesamentlik oor al honneursprogramme in die Departement van Statistiek. Seleksie is gebaseer op prestasie in die voorafgaande graad, op voorwaarde II en III hierbo.
  • Historiese prestasie gedurende vorige studies sal ook oorweeg word in studente kies. Spesifieke aandag sal gegee word aan modules herhaal en duur van studie.
  •  Enige addisionele toelatingsvereistes soos deur die departementshoof in oorleg met die departementele nagraadse keurkomitee.
 

 

 

    Bevordering tot volgende studiejaar

    The progress of all honours candidates is monitored biannually by the postgraduate coordinator/head of department. A candidate’s study may be terminated if the progress is unsatisfactory or if the candidate is unable to finish his/her studies during the prescribed period.

    Slaag met lof

    The BScHons degree is awarded with distinction to a candidate who obtains a weighted average of at least 75% in all the prescribed modules and a minimum of 65% in any one module.
