Explanation:


Web from NZ:

"Students may graduate with honours or distinction if an outstanding level of achievement is reached throughout the duration of their postgraduate programme.

A student who completes the requirements for a masters degree with an independent research project of at least 40 points, within the normal time limits, and is not required to re-submit a thesis/dissertation, may be awarded the degree with honours.

A student who completes the requirements of a degree without a research component of at least 40 points within the normal time limits allowed may be awarded the degree with distinction or merit."

  -> Thanks. I think the expression is very context specific, so knowing which country might help. I have a BA Hons, which was a three-year degree, and the honours bit didn't mean much really, except in comparison to an ordinary degree. We all got BA Hons then
