Course overview

This combined degree allows students to pursue interests in the arts, humanities and social sciences, and the physical or biological sciences. Students can study an arts major/extended major and a science major of their choice in preparation for a wide range of careers. The degree combines excellent communication and analytical skills with scientific knowledge and has been developed in response to increasing student demand and employer preference for recruitment of combined degree graduates. It offers breadth of learning and multi-skilling across disciplines, recognising that graduates are required to demonstrate skills in critical analysis, research, communication and technological expertise.
