207-3 has been added,
Psychology
401
has been
dropped. Students must take
Psychology 207-3, Psychology 402-5, and
the two Honors courses. The department
have also divided Psychology 499-10 into two
5 credit courses. The primary reason for
this
change is to enable the student to
spread the work of the honors project over
two semesters. Some projects will involve
experimental research. It is difficult
for anyone, especially an undergraduate,
to conveive, carry out and write an
experimental research project in less than
four months. Dividing the honors project
into two parts, which may be spread over
several semesters, provides more
flexibility for students doing an honors
project. Note that although 499-10 has
been in the calendar for some time, it has
never been used.

HONOURS PROJECT PSYC9O-5,
1499_5.
The assumption that underlies the Hbnours Projects is that in
order to complete an Honours Programme in Psychology a student must enter
into the process by which knowledge in the field is advanced. He must
assume the role of a contributor to Psychology as well as a consumer of the
work of others. It is recognized that there are many ways to contribute.

90-5
and
199_5
may be undertaken in a single semester or spread
over two semesters. The project may consist of original research, a
critical review of the literature, a series of case studies, a theoretical
analysis, or other approved undertakings.
The proposal for the project must be approved by a faculty member
who agrees to supervise it, and by the Undergraduate Studies Committee,
before registration in PSYC
198-5
and/or
199_5.
The proposals will be
evaluated on the adequacy of the organization of existing information,
their testing of an idea, their critical analysis of theory and their
.
feasability. The final product must be evaluated, and a mark assignea,
by vote of a committee consisting of the faculty supervisor and another
faculty member in a related area, with the Departmental Undergraduate
Advisor sitting as a member of the Committee and chairman.
Open
kv
special arrangement only to Psychology Honors students who have completed at least
90 semester hours credits
of
university work, with at least 20 credits in upper-division Psychology
courses. For detailed information, contact the Chairman
of
the Psychology Undergraduate
Studies Committee.
