Students challenge and develop their scientific capabilities in this elite four year program, gaining deep disciplinary knowledge, broad scientific literacy, and high level analytical, problem solving and communication skills. They work alongside leading scientists and collaborate with high achieving peers on cutting edge research projects that build research expertise and critical thinking. The program offers exceptional flexibility, allowing students to explore a wide range of scientific disciplines in first year before specialising in one of 25 majors and complementing their studies with additional majors or minors across more than 30 scientific fields or areas such as languages, communication, design, or economics. In their final year, students complete a full year independent research project gaining in depth research training and highly sought after analytical and communication skills that provide excellent preparation for PhD studies. Graduates earn a respected honours qualification and find expanding opportunities across government, health, corporate, environmental, and financial sectors, as well as research organisations globally.
