Honours Specialization Consumer Behavior or Human Resource Management Students who think they may be interested in pursuing an Honours Thesis should submit the below information by July 31st. There is limited enrolment in the course, and enrolment will be based on academic criteria (minimum 80% average on the last 5.0 courses) and shared research interests with a professor in the DAN Department of Management & Organizational Studies.
