As I understand it undergraduate degree could cover degrees that don´t lead finally to a honour´s qualification (licenciatura) ie ordinary or unclassified degrees.
see wikipedia british undergraduate degree classification.

no problem. I think it also covers those who were trying for an honours but didn't get a third. At least you still get a degree...!

Note from asker:
| Hi Kathryn. What would be the difference between this and a "licenciatura"? Any ideas? Thanks! |
| OK thanks. I have always thought that they were more or less the same too: like the fact that you can do a basic degree and top it up to licenciatura. I think we could just use the general term "undergraduate degree" and flag it to the proofreader... Thanks again. |
4 KudoZ points awarded for this answer.
Comment: "Kathryn was the first to mention "undergraduate degree" and gave me some help. I flagged the issue to the proofreader, as both "grado" and "licenciatura" seemed to be covered by "degree" here. All of you were helpful, and I wish I could split the points perhaps! Thanks. Have a great week. :)"

bachelor's degree / undergraduate academic degree
A bachelor's degree is usually an undergraduate academic degree awarded for a course or major that generally lasts for three, four, or in some cases and countries, five or six years. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bachelor's_degree#England....
A Bachelor's Degree and a licenciatura are the same. Perhaps undergraduate degree would fit better.
Hope it helps!

In Collins Robert, they seem to indicate that the terms "título" and "grado" are interchangeable

Título de grado vs. Licenciatura
Por si os sirve, actualmente, las universidades españolas que aún no han puesto en marcha las titulaciones adatadas a Bolonia, ofrecen Licenciaturas, es decir, lo que siempre se ha venido a llamar carreras superiores; Ingenierías y Diplomaturas, por ejemplo Magisterio, nfermería, etc., de menor duración.
Con la aplicación de Bolonia, las licenciaturas desaparecen y se convierten en "Grados", pasando las titulaciones de tres años o diplomaturas a cuatro.
Ahora a mí me queda la duda de si son realmente "undergraduate". Personalmente, yo hablaría de degrees o bachelor degrees, aunque ya sabemos que todo esto varía de país a país. Precisamente evitar estas ambigüedades es lo que se intenta con la unificación que propone Bolonia para la UE.
