Wiecie coś na temat "honours degree"?

19.06.05, 21:07
Hello,

Jestem tu pierwszy raz i od razu mam pytanie - nawet nie tyle o tłumaczenie,
ile o sens sformułowania "2:1 honours degree" w tekście: "You must also have
a minimum of a 2:1 honours degree (100% essential), ideally from a leading
university"

Mój słownik (Longman) mówi:

honours degree - a university degree that is above the basic level in one or
two particular subjects at a British university

Czy ktoś mógłby mi w przybliżeniu wyjaśnić, o co chodzi? I czy ma to jakiś
polski odpowiednik? Proszę smile

Pozdrawiam,
E.

      Bachelor's degree - Licencjat?
      2:1 - najlepsze w "Second Class" - tzw. "Upper Division". Wyzej jest
      tylko "First Class" (1st)

      Dzięki.

      Gdyby to kogoś interesowało - wklejam jeszcze to, co dostałam mailem:

      The biggest distinction made is whether the degree is awarded with or without
      Honours. Nowadays, nearly all candidates sit for honours; a Pass Degree (i.e. a
      bachelor's degree without honours) is usually awarded to a candidate who
      marginally fails the honours examination, or significant parts of it. A
      candidate who fails badly is usually allowed to retake the examination for a
      pass degree; most universities prohibit such a student from receiving honours.

      Most universities award a class of degree based on the average mark of the
      assessed work a candidate has completed. Below is a list of the possible
      classifications with common abbreviations. Honours degrees are in bold:

      First Class Honours (First or 1st)
      Upper Second Class Honours (2:1)
      Lower Second Class Honours (2:2)
      Third Class Honours (Third or 3rd)
      Pass without honours (Pass)
      Fail (no degree is awarded)
