what is the diffrence betweem degree and honour degree?

dear friend

The honours degree generally requires a higher academic standard than a general degree.
Honours degree is given when a student who either complete an extra year of college. So, the honours degree is seen as the higher qualification.........

Dear friend,

Here I discuss the difference between a degree and Honors degree:

An honors degree generally requires a higher academic standard than a pass degree.

Traditionally, a three-year degree is also called a pass degree or general degree, where there is no specialisation on a particular subject.

Students can take a bachelor's degree with Honors in a particular subject or a pass degree without any Honors.

The degree colleges and universities all over India provide students bachelor's degree in pass course or Honors course in Arts,Science,and Commerce named as BA,B.Sc,B.Com.

If they are taken with an Honors then are named as B.A(hons),B.Sc(hons),B.Com(hons).

Hope you have cleared your doubt.

Good Luck!

Hello friend,
The term Honors refers to specialisation in a particular field. During the bachelors programme, if any indivudual wants to specialize in a particular area, like accountancy/economics/english etc., he/she will pursue B.Com/B.A/B.Sc with honors in any particular subject.
The eligibility to qualify for honors is always a higher percentage of marks in the particular subject and in aggregate too.

how many subjects can be opted in b.sc hons? what is the time duration of this course?

what dose mean by the B-tech pass degree and B-tech Honor digree is that honour degree is equal to post graduate or specialised degree
i am confused now plz explain

B-tech Honor degree is eqaual to bachlor degree or specialized bacholre degree

hello friend

honors is basically specialisation of a perticular subject/course/or paper.

if you can hons in a particular subject(like physics,chemistry,zoology etc) then only you are allow to do higher study like masterate,or Btech.

but degree of a particular course is devided into two parts

1.honors.

2.pass.

all the best.......

Hi!

Honours in BSc.(hons) means that you have specialized in a particular science subject.

Regarding difference between degree & honours, the right question should be what is the difference between a pass degree & a general degree. It doesn't matter whether you are pursuing a pass graduate course or honours graduate course you will get a bachelor's degree in both the cases.

But If you are pursuing a honours degree course then it means that you are specialising in a particular subject & that you posses a higher academic standard than a pass degree.

bsc honours degree is given to those students who are having higher academic qualifications. And all other students will get normal bsc degree. So bsc hons is for higher qualification.

The basic difference between a degree and honors is that in honors you are specialized in particular subject and you have in depth knowledge of subject and you have to study only a single subject whereas in degree you have to study two subjects.
That's all

dear friend,
really you have asked a very good question,here.
there is no too much difference between the degree and the honors.generally you can term the 3 year course after 12th as a degree,and also the UGC make a prestigious name for it that it will be also called hons,

I have to be a career Counsellor. What options are available for me?

A hons. degree means that a student has cleared all the subject in his degree in first attempt. And if you got a simple degree then it means that you were having back in your past.

pass degree & honours degree have originally difference in job market because i am suffered that i have a pass degree.

if your overall % in any field like bsc/be/b.tech .... is greater or equal than 75 then you will called as pass by (hons)

what does B.com (hons) means

hi

what is the difference between a Btech and a Bsc degree.

what is difference between B.SC(economics) and B.A.(economics)? And which one is better for a commerce student ?

I am a commerce student who wants to pursue economics for my graduation.Pls. advice which is a better course for a commerce student who is average in maths-BA Eco(honours) or B.sc Eco(Hons)?

bsc honours in which subject has greater fields and scopes ahead,PHYSICS OR CHEMISTRY?

If we have to Study all the Subjects we study during the course of normal degree course in the Honours degree plus we have to undertake special course in honours subject

WHAT ARE THE CRITERIA FOR HONS DEGREE...........???????????

is B.Sc(Hons) equal to M.Sc?

BSc. (hons) just give you self-confidence and extend your expectation of opportunities in job market and
only BSc. will tell you that, oh look mate you could not finish degree with (Hons) then how can you finish all your actual job duties in life.
Don't worry be optimistic in Life, look what you learn from BSc. degree. develop, expand & turn that to opportunity.
and set an example, and move in life. we are a human not robot. love what you do, success is not permanent for anyone. life is challenging for every second.


at the end of the day is all about Money, status & name. if you get BSc.( Hons) u can claim for good salary which lead to luxury life or many other activities . & only BSc. then less chances.
but its not written in any book. be strong guys. time makes the difference.

What do you mean by honours in Hindi ? Whether a student passed `Prabhar in Hindi ' (Honour in Hindi) is will be considered equivalent to graduate like BA ?

hi dear,
The honours degree generally requires a higher academic standard than a general degree.
