Science is one of humanity’s greatest collective endeavours. Scientific knowledge underpins and advances societies globally via the exploration of knowledge frontiers in an expanding array of disciplines. Scientific and technological advances increase the quality of our lives and guide our care of Earth's complex systems. The scientific community is constantly … For more content click the Read More button below.
The Bachelor of Science gives students the opportunity to investigate global issues that affect society and work within interdisciplinary teams to explore creative solutions. In the first year, you will study a range of disciplines to build a solid foundation in scientific knowledge and practice, which aims to help students choose their preferred major from second year. Students can choose from the following majors; Cell and Molecular Biology, Chemistry, and Ecology and Conservation Biology. In addition to these majors, opportunities exist for you to select additional minors to explore other areas of study.
A common first year in the Bachelor of Science was introduced in 2021. This will bring all science students together into the same set of subjects in first year allowing you to make connections and be part of a broader scientific community, regardless of the major you eventually choose. This means that independent of which major you choose you will be covering the same key first year subjects. The common first year subjects include global challenges in science, chemistry, biology, and earth and environmental sciences. This allows you the flexibility of choice of your major in the later years of your degree. It provides a broad knowledge base in science and ensures that you have the foundational, pre-requisite subjects to take on any pathway for your second year and beyond.
