Undergraduate Programs
The Faculty of Science offers a range of flexible undergraduate degrees for students looking for a successful and rewarding career in Science.
Our aim is to provide our graduates with an excellent classroom experience complemented by opportunities to engage with the practical application of their chosen area of study through field study and work placements, as well as the technical, communication and problem solving skills necessary to fully prepare them for employment either in Australia or overseas.
Students are able to choose a general degree program, such as the Bachelor of Science, which offers maximum flexibility, sampling a number of first year subjects before choosing an area of specialisation in their second year. Alternatively, more structured programs are available, providing the accredited qualifications necessary to prepare them for future professional employment in areas such as Engineering or Chiropractic Science.
Growing emphasis is being placed on the development of generic skills as part of students' learning experience at all levels of study. Excellence in teaching is supplemented by the inclusion, in some programs, of guest lectures by industry experts. Other business and industry contributions include student internships, prizes for achievement in individual units of study, scholarships to support students during one or more years of study, and workplace-based student assignments for assessment towards units of study.
