British Degree Abbreviations - Undergraduate

Undergraduate

Most British bachelor's degrees are honours degrees, indicated by putting '(Hons)' after the degree abbreviation. The majority of undergraduate master's degrees are within science and engineering subjects. The undergraduate MAs of the ancient universities of Scotland are also honours degrees and may also add '(Hons)'. MEng used to be offered by some universities as a postgraduate degree, but is now an undergraduate degree. However, all students completing the MEng at British universities have already completed the requirements for the BEng, but they choose not to be awarded the degree when entering the MEng year.
