Summary of Changes from Previous Version

During the development of the pre-empted Honours Guidelines it became clear that due to the mandatory nature of the content of the Honours document, they should proceed as mandatory procedures rather than guidelines. Accordingly, the reference in the Curriculum Design and Approvals (CDA) Policy has been updated. Although this is an administrative type change, approval was sought at Academic Senate as part of the Honours Procedures approval. [AS 22/06:04]
