Course overview

The Bachelor of Science degree has been created to help expand your scientific knowledge, while giving you the freedom to explore what you like and discover what you love.

With six specialist majors to choose from, you will be able to self-curate your own study program. The specialist majors include: Biomedical Science, Environmental Science, Human Movement, Nutrition Studies, Chemical Science, Biological Science. Plus, with room to study eight open electives in areas like Health, Communications, Technology, or Law, you’ll diversify your skillset, broaden or deepen your knowledge base, and increase your employment prospects.

Building on the strong foundational Core Major in Science, you’ll develop a highly-transferrable set of skills that include critical thinking, scientific reasoning, data analysis and communication that’ll stay with you long after graduating. You’ll also undertake scenario-based study, participate in practical work integrated learning opportunities, and use industry-standard lab equipment.  These experiences and skills will equip you to solve a range of theoretical and contemporary real-world problems.
