This can be achieved through a directed reading course (WL 450) or by enrolling in an upper-division course in another department at 丁香园AV. Students may also have the option to complete an upper-division course at another university with prior approval.

At the heart of the Honours program is a commitment to language study. You will engage in twelve units of language study, which may include courses completed during study abroad programs, field schools, or equivalent programs.
