Bachelor of Multidisciplinary Science

Curtin University

Type of institution: University/Higher Education Institution
Level: Undergraduate
CRICOS: 00301J

Bachelor Degrees prepare students to develop broad and coherent knowledge and skills in a discipline for professional work and further learning corresponding to AQF level 7 qualifications. The application of science to real world problems continues to evolve and become increasingly complex and truly multi-disciplinary in nature. Nowadays, in many areas of scientific endeavour, no single science discipline is sufficient. This is reflected in multi-disciplinary fields such as astronomy, biochemistry, bioinformatics, environmental science, forensic science, and nanotechnology. The Bachelor of Multidisciplinary Science provides students the opportunity to combine study in more than one science discipline. The intention is to provide graduates with the skills to operate across the traditional boundaries of a single scientific discipline. Graduates will also be ideally placed to develop a teaching career across a range of science areas.

Standard entry requirements

  • Completed year 12 in Australia or overseas in the past two years, or
  • Completed TAFE or VET studies in the past two years
  • Applicants with vocational education and training (VET) study are those whose highest level of study since leaving secondary education is a VET course. This includes study at a public TAFE or other VET provider, whether a qualification was completed or not. Applicants with VET study may have other qualifications such as a Year 10 or Year 12 secondary school certificate
  • Applicants with higher education are those whose highest level of study since leaving secondary education is a higher education course, such as a university degree. This may include applicants who are currently studying a higher education course at another education provider and want to transfer to Curtin University, or applicants who are currently studying at Curtin but want to switch to a different course. It may also include applicants who have completed past study with university and non-university higher education providers.
