A focus on experiential learning also means that you have multiple opportunities to develop valuable skills such as public speaking, advocacy, dispute resolution and mooting.The scientific elements of your double degree are equally practical. Over the course of your studies, you will complete 5 core Science courses and 7 courses to form a Science stream in Biology & Environment, Environment & Heritage, Human & Medical Science or Multidisciplinary Science.
