Degree Classification Systems

Degree Classification Systems is an academic construct that categorizes undergraduate and postgraduate degrees into hierarchical classes based on cumulative academic performance, typically represented through distinctions such as first class, upper second class, lower second class, and third class honors, differentiating it from other degree evaluation methods by its focus on aggregating and ranking student attainment across a program.
