Honours degree in Canada (duration of study)
The only part of canada that a Honours degree requires an additional year of study is Ontario. In every other province a major, general or honours degree requires the same number of years of study i.e. 3 years in Quebec or 4 years in R.O.C. (Excluding Ontario. I would also like to note that in the US they do have honours degrees and the distinction is determined typically by completion of a theses in addition to extra course work in the major concentration and/or a higher min GPA, this is ture of Harvard but also McGill and UBC in Canada. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 129.97.58.55 (talk) 22:26, 26 January 2006 (UTC)

Bachelor of Applied Arts and Sciences
I added the BAAS to the list, like at the University of North Texas.--152.163.101.9 04:08, 24 March 2006 (UTC)

Bachelor of Philosophy
Why relegate the B.Phil. degree to the bottom of the page? It is renowned and highly respected degree throughout the world, both as an undergraduate degree and a graduate degree. Scholars throughout the world hold it in extraordinarily high regard.

Wikipedians, shall we place it with the more recognisable Bachelor's degrees, rather than let it languish next to highly specialized, relatively obscure degrees (although legitimate degrees, obviously), at the bottom of the page? Certainly the B.Phil's renown surpasses that of Bachelor of Information Technology, etc. By far. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 4.156.186.85 (talk • contribs).


 * As the holder of a B.Phil. myself, I agree broadly with the claim (though it has to be said that most B.Phil. degrees, especially the newer undergraduate ones, are no more world-renowned than any other degree). Still, the article is primarily about undergraduate degrees; moreover, it's not clear to me that they're ordered by value or prestige. --Mel Etitis  ( Μελ Ετητης ) 08:59, 22 April 2006 (UTC)

times article
at the end of the first paragraph of "england wales and northern ireland" http://www.timesonline.co.uk/article/0,,8403-1795732,00.html is cited. This article seems to be from the republic of ireland. In particular the third paragraph mentions an irish site first and then goes on to say "for those thinking of applying in great britian and northern ireland" and gives the uk site.
