Bachelor of Science
It provides high-quality studies in a wide range of science and technology disciplines. Students take introductory science and mathematics units and select two majors relevant to their interests and aspirations.
Four course-level electives allow flexibility, the capacity to undertake overseas study or to enroll in specific humanities units that contribute to the eligibility for entry to a postgraduate teacher education course.
Students studying on the South West (Bunbury) campus undertake a specified set of core units and both the Conservation Biology and Environmental Management majors. Units undertaken on the South West (Bunbury) campus will be delivered as a series of lectures or laboratory intensives, supported by technology-enhanced learning and digital content.
