Australia: No honours degree...?

Quote From Sue2604:

Yes, a double degree is better than a standard u'grad degree, but not sure how much better this is viewed. Could you do a masters by course work, with a research project, then the PhD? You need to show that you have research experience to get into a PhD, and if you don't have hons, then try and do a subject in your masters where you can do a research project.


Thanks for replying Sue.

The only way I can/would complete Ma/PhD would be entirely through research. Course work drives me crazy at this stage and I plan enough of it for students as it is.

I would like to continue study and complete a masters and phd in sociology by research however I have no honours - a prerequisit listed for virtually every uni course by research that I have seen.

I do have a double degree in soc/edu. Is this viewed in a better light than a standard three year undergraduate degree and will it help in anyway or is it just wishful thinking?
