The Bachelor of Laws degree provides a gateway to a rewarding career in Law and can provide a strong foundation for other career opportunities. This degree will prepare you to work as a lawyer in a private practice, in government, as corporate counsel or in a not-for-profit organisation. The Bachelor of Science is a flexible, three-year course that provides students with a broad-based Science education that can be customised to maximise future career opportunities. With a wide range of Science courses on offer, the course provides well-developed knowledge and specialised disciplinary skills in Archaeology, Biology, Environmental Science, Geography and Human Biology. A strong emphasis on research in both the laboratory and the field, ensures students will acquire the fundamental skills of scientific investigation such as data collection and analysis, critical thinking, problem solving and effective communication. The capstone internship course and final year research project foster confidence, independence and self-directed learning. The flexibility of the Bachelor of Science provides a unique learning experience because it allows students to complete a double major in Science or access a major from another degree, resulting in an interdisciplinary program.
