Bachelor of Science

The Bachelor of Science is a pathway to all these careers, and hundreds more.With more than 40 majors on offer, you can select from the full range of science, biomedicine, mathematics, engineering and IT subjects. If you’re the kind of person who already has a clear goal in mind, you can get started on your path right away. Or, if you’re still unsure, you don’t need to decide now. We’ve set up the course so you can explore, taking the time you need to find your passion.You’ll be taught, mentored and inspired by international experts in their fields. Our lecturers have a huge range of specialties, but what they have in common is their passion for sharing their knowledge with you.
At Melbourne, we create well-rounded graduates who can lead inside and outside the lab. That’s why our degrees aren’t like most others you’ll find in Australia.
First, we make sure you have a first-class education in your main specialty. Then we help broaden your skill set with subjects such as law, languages, business, or communications. The idea is that you’ll be well prepared for not just your first career, but also your second, third and beyond. Over the next decade, an estimated 75 per cent of jobs in the fastest growing industries will need skills in science, technology, engineering, maths and medicine. If you want a job in an emerging industry, or maybe one that hasn't even been thought of yet, a Bachelor of Science will get you there.

Applicants are selected according to academic merit, in the form of the ATAR or notional ATAR calculated by the relevant Tertiary Admissions Centre. Courses which select primarily on ATAR will have minimum ATARs set in advance, and you can only be selected below this point if you have additional criteria to be considered.
