Overview

Broaden your career prospects by studying Advanced Science and Arts together. Both degrees offer plenty of flexibility, allowing you to tailor your studies to suit your interests and career goals.

The Advanced Science degree differs from the Bachelor of Science with the inclusion of advanced-level courses, an Honours year and options tailored to your aptitude and interests. In addition to foundation subjects such as biology, chemistry, physics and maths, you also have access to more than 25 advanced fields of science. During your studies, you will develop the critical and integrative thinking needed for the successful completion of the research-based Honours year.

You can then choose from more than 35 Arts majors, where you will develop transferable skills and in-depth knowledge, and gain the tools to think critically, communicate effectively and conduct independent research.
