In addition to the normal undergraduate degree, students with strong academic records may undertake an undergraduate Honours degree entailing an additional one year (full-time) or two years (part-time) of study. The Honours program consists of advanced subjects (covering theory, research methodology along with electives) plus a thesis of around 20,000 words. As a more advanced program, the Honours degree is intended to enhance student's critical analytical and problem-solving skills, deepen their knowledge of the fields of industrial relations, human resource management or management, and provide valuable research skills. Entry to the Honours program is based on having a strong academic record, especially within the chosen discipline. Students should seek entry to the Honours program before they finalise their enrolment for third year study.

Honours in Industrial Relations is available to the end of Year 3 only for Bachelor of Economics students and to the end of Year 4 for Bachelor of Commerce students.
