How to apply for Honours in an MDHS Department

STEP 1

You will need to decide which department or institute, supervisor and project you wish to apply for.

To do this you must speak to potential supervisors. Department and Institute Honours project booklets and websites, the MDHS Honours Expo, and individual information sessions held by departments and institutes are all ways of helping you to make contact with potential honours supervisors.

STEP 2

You must lodge an application for Honours to the Faculty of Science. Applications open 17 September 2009 and close 20 November 2009. 
Course code: 754 BM (Biomedical Science).

Local applicants who are currently studying with Melbourne University apply on-line here:  https://sis.unimelb.edu.au/cgi-bin/course-application.pl

Local external applicants apply on-line here: https://sis.unimelb.edu.au/cgi-bin/course-application.pl/register/

Local applicants then print off a hard copy of their application and take it to the Science Student Centre as instructed.

All international applicants (including those who are current students at Melbourne University) must lodge their application with the International Admissions Office.

STEP 3

After you have decided on a project(s), and after you have submitted your application via either the Student Information System or International Admissions, you will need to lodge your project preferences with MDHS through HATS. It is essential that you have already identified which projects you wish to apply for by speaking to potential supervisors (step 1), and have applied for honours (step 2), BEFORE you carry out step 3.

To use HATS you will need to be issued with a HATS password - this will be issued on the Monday following the date you completed step 2.

The Honours Application Tracking System (HATS)  will open from Monday 21 September 2009, here: https://hats.mdhs.unimelb.edu.au/HATS/public/index.php 

When do I apply?

For commencement in semester 1 2010, applications open on 17 September 2009 and close on 20 November 2009.
