  3. Recent changes to HASS Programs

We have recently completed a review of the Bachelor of Advanced Humanities (Honours) (BAdvHum(Hons)) and have made some changes to this program for students commencing in Semester 1, 2021. 

Some of the changes were made to standardise aspects of UQ undergraduate programs. Other changes were made to ensure that we have a sustainable suite of program, plan and course offerings. When viewing the course list on the Programs and Courses website, you can change which year you are viewing using the dropdown box near the top right of the list to compare the 2021 BAdvHum(Hons) with the pre-2021 program.

As a continuing student, your choice of plans (Majors, Extended Majors) will determine to what extent you are affected by these changes, but please be assured that you will be able to complete the plans you have commenced and you will not be affected by any substantive change to the structure of the program as a whole.

We are here to help you plan your enrolment for 2021.

From 2021 onwards three Extended Majors will no longer be offered for commencing students in the BAdvHum(Hons) —Drama, Mathematics, Studies in Religion.

However, as a continuing student, if you commenced studying one of these plans prior to 2021, you can complete the plan with courses listed on the pre-2021 course list or new courses that may be available in a related 2021 course list. Please refer to the relevant completion planner below to assist with your enrolment, and don’t hesitate to contact the faculty student team for advice.
