Looking good Nicole Jones and Pascal Carrive and Natasha Kumar and Ric Day :)

It looks FABULOUS

Welcome to all 134 ATTENDEES :)

Now 139 :)

147 attendees - Welcome! :)

I can see the whole slide

greetings zoom in from the USA

Welcome from USA :)

NY 1:09AM HERE

We are pleased to have you :)

OK

Will we be able to access this powerpoint anywhere?

We'll make the PowerPoint available to all students who registered for this event

Thank you!

For step 3, if we have a compulsory honours in our program, do we simply complete steps 1 and 2 by the deadlines?

Some of the sharepoint poster links require a login, I'm wondering if that is intentional or is a mistake?

If you want to start in T1, 2022 you just need to complete steps 1 and 2 by 29th October (but you should start looking for a supervisor now)

an example - the link to the poster for "Translational Neuroscience Facility, Wallace Wurth Building 3SW" says "Access Denied"

thank you Cristan

Hi Elijah, here is a link to TNF. https://medicalsciences.med.unsw.edu.au/research/groups/translational-neuroscience-facility

Do we have to complete our Bachelor's degree before starting honours? I only have 2 subjects left to complete next term which are free electives but I am curious if I would be allowed to start my honours concurrently whilst finishing off those 2 subjects

My degree is Advanced Science, so it is an embedded honours year

Yes you need to have completed a Bachelors degree (48 UOC) to begin Honours. If that is the case you could complete the 2 subjects in term 3 and begin Honours the following term.

Thank you

I am an Honours student interested in taking on a Research Assistant position next year. Can I talk to the supervisors today to see if they would be interested in hiring next year? And when is the best time to begin applying to Research Assistant roles to begin early next year?

Is it possible to undertake SOMS honours part time?

Hey! Do we still need to ‘apply’ for Honours if we are doing Advanced Science? Thanks!

Yes you can do Honours part time (50% load) and complete over two years.

Part-time Honours is possible, but you should ask potential supervisors if they are willing to take on students doing part-time projects

So in a full time load, we are expected to be at uni every day of the week?

I noticed in some project lists there was "research assistant" with PhD, Masters and Honours position listed separately.Can research assistant positions be taken by students still undertaking their undergrad? Or do these tend to be reserved for post-grads?

Yes Jenny - that is the expectation

Is the research we do as part of the honours program published?

work week

haha sorry I meant Monday to Friday yeah

Yes, full time load is typically Mon - Fri (minimum expectation is 35 hours per week), but also ask your potential supervisors about their expectations also

Is it possible to do honors in science after bachelor of nursing?

How did COVID impact honours projects over the last two years? Specifically regarding the development of lab and research skills

What are scholarships like for domestic students?

Are there scholarships for Honours?

Would a Masters in Science be more advantageous than an Honours year

HDR scholarships - require H1/H1E

What is equivalent to first class honours (H1E)?

Master in Science is 2 year degree, honours is 1 year. It would depend upon a lot of things

Is the research we do as part of the honours program published?

H1E - would be if you did not get H1 mark, but then have a research publication

that's a lpt of people before the covid pandemic hits

lot I mean

Is it very difficult to get H1

Are there any coursework components in the SOMS honours as seen in the neuroscience honours (e.g. NEUR4411)?

Some honours students may publish some of their work, but this is not always the case

Amazing fishtank Cristan

Hi! Is the application process for Honours the same for BSci and Advanced Sci students? Thanks!

Yes can we get clarification on this q ^? thanks!!

Thanks so much

Is the WAM requirement different depending on the supervisor?

Does undertaking a part-time honours degree stop me from enrolling in a different degree at another university until I finish the 2 years? I am deciding between allied health and research

do we have to wait for a response to step 2 before submitting the application in step 3?

Do you have to get an approval from the supervisor

I've emailed a supervisor a few weeks ago and they haven't replied do I keep following up?

When can we complete intention to undertake honours for t1 2022?

Yes Lucy, send a follow up email.

I think for t1 date is 29 oct

Can we apply anytime or is there a start date?

Intention to undertake honours for T3 2021 is open now. Intention to undertake honours for T1 2022 will open mid Term3 and close Oct 29 2021. The student nucleus can give you the exact open date.

are we required to find a minimum of three potential supervisors?

Do students doing standalone programs have a graduation ceremony?

If we take a little over 3 years to complete our degree so we weren’t full time the whole time are we still eligible (as the slide at the beginning said a 3 year full time degree)

When is the census date for students commencing their honours year in Term 1?

okay, thank you!

Thank you!

if i completed my science degree in mid 2019 is it too late to be considered to do honours? what’s the time frame i have left before i’m not allowed to complete honours anymore if there is one

If I graduate from Bachelor of Science, how long would I be eligible to apply for Honours year? Because USYD only accepts students that have completed their degree within the last 10 years

Thank you everyone for attending the SoMS and SoHS Research Info Session. The other zoom meetings are now about to commence and will be open until 5pm today. You can access these Zoom Meetings from the Research Document. If you have further questions please email: somshonours@unsw.edu.au

For term 1 2022 honours when will applications be approved? And will results obtained after the application process be taken into consideration (i.e. term 3 2021 results)

Great! Thank you!

Census date for T1 2022 is end of week 4

Thank you everyone. If you have further questions please email: somshonours@unsw.edu.au

For Term 1 2022 Honours application will be assessed during Nov. You will get notification in mid December. Yes Term 2 2021 results will be taken into account for your WAM.
