Bachelor of Advanced Science (Honours) / Bachelor of Design Conjoint - Geology

The BAdvSci(Hons)BDes conjoint is designed for students who are keen on scientific research and wish to progress to postgraduate study. For the Design component, you will focus on developing practical solutions for current challenges and future scenarios. The Design courses encourage system analysis, prototype development and iterative testing to create appropriate, sustainable solutions for products, services and innovation. Within the Advanced Science side of the conjoint, you will have the opportunity to focus on a research area that interests you, including a final year independent project under the mentorship of an academic. You’ll choose one of the following specialisations: Chemistry, Computational Biology, Computer Science, Ecology, Environmental Change, Geology, Marine Science, Mathematics, Physics, Psychology, Statistics. Most graduates of the BAdvSci(Hons) programme have an interest in pursuing postgraduate scientific study or advanced research careers. With the support of creative problem-solving and design skills, you will be uniquely positioned to explore and translate the real potential and application of new scientific discoveries.

Geology covers a diverse range of geoscience subject matter that govern the Earth’s surface and interior, and sustainable interactions between society and the Earth. Geology is critical to shaping a sustainable future for our planet and a circular economy. This includes fundamental geoscience disciplines, igneous, metamorphic and sedimentary origins of rocks and mineral-forming processes; volcanology, tectonics and structural deformation; engineering geology, environmental change, natural hazards; the sustainable management of natural resources that are facilitating the global energy transition and “green” technology innovations.
