neutral  Golden Hawk: un licenciado con grado no es sólo un licenciado. Es un licenciado con tesina, pero supongo que no hay un equivalente exacto en inglés.

  -> All these things do vary quite a bit between institutions and countries, so all we can use are general equivalents. This seems to be the best one.

B.S. with Honors/Bachelor's Degree with Honors


Explanation:
Bachelor's Degree with Honors in Chemistry

Honors Thesis: Study of...
or
Honors Thesis Study of...

This is how they did it at Berkeley, where in order to graduate from a department with honors you had to complete an honors thesis, and this seems to be a similar case.

Good luck!
