Can I take non-Economics Electives as part of my Honours year?
• It depends. • We need to keep in mind two principles: • Your honours year units must be of a sufficiently high standard that a person reading your transcript (e.g. prospective employer, PhD program coordinator) doesn’t think it looks in any way ‘watered down’; • Sometimes, for a compelling reason to do with your research project and/or prospective employment, a non-Econ unit seems appropriate for you to take.
