Bachelor of Science (Major: Biology)

By completing a Major in Biology you will be able to play a vital role in filling the gaps in society’s knowledge about species, ecosystems and environmental threats and contribute to the sustainable management of natural resources in Australia and elsewhere. Our Major in Biology is usually taken over three years of full-time study, with eight of the 24 courses being devoted to Biology. Courses include Aquatic Science, Pollution and Ecotoxicology, Animal Diversity and Microbiology. In addition to these courses, you will also be required to complete a Directed Science Research project which provides the opportunity for you to specialise in a particular area of interest and to develop additional fieldwork and problem-solving skills.
