My First Honours Student
I 'got' my first Honours student today!! I am going to supervise his Honours thesis!! I am so excited! It is my first supervision!
And the best thing is that he is working for me and my PhD thesis!! I am so excited!! :-)
But they are all sooo bloody young! Over here they finish high-school at the age of 17 and therefore they start uni with 17! They get their first degree (Bachelor) with 20!!
After that you can do an Honours for 1 year. Within this year the students have to attend some courses and write an Honours thesis. After they completed their Honours they can do a Master or a PhD. It is all so exciting!! :-)
