Programinligting

Hierdie inligtig is slegs in Engels beskikbaar.

The honours degree is awarded on the basis of formal modules passed. Students registered for the BScHons in Soil Science [Option: Environmental Soil Science] will register for all the soil science modules prescribed at honours level, as well as any other modules deemed necessary by the head of department.

Renewal of registration

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.
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

Bykomend tot die vereistes van die Algemene Regulasies, is 'n toepaslike baccalaureusgraad 'n voorvereiste. Grondkunde op voorgraadse vlak word vereis naamlik: Inleidende grondkunde, Pedologie en Grondchemie. Dit is volgens die diskresie van die departementshoof om enige ander modules voor te skryf wat nodig mag wees, of 'n voornemende student van spesifieke vereistes te stel.

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.
