Monash University

Melbourne , Victoria ,Australia

Bachelor of Science and Bachelor of Music

Though you may not think that music and science go together, there is a wonderful synergy between the passion for creating music and a love of scientific knowledge.  Choosing between the two can be hard so why not make the most of your talents and study both science and music in a double degree course.

With this course, your knowledge of human biology may help you unravel the physiological response that music creates. Your knowledge of physics or mathematics could help you create great music, perhaps as you specialize in creative music technology.

This course leads to two separate degrees:

  • the Bachelor of Science, and
  • Bachelor of Music.

You will gain all the benefits of each degree course (see Bachelor of Science/Bachelor of Music) and be fully equipped to pursue a career in either field separately or to combine the two in your chosen work.
