Bachelor of Science (Exercise Science and Nutrition)
The Bachelor of Science (Exercise
Science and Nutrition) combines studies in the areas of Nutrition and Exercise
Science. The double major requires the completition of 150 credit points
of core subjects and 3 years of full time study. This degree represents
the first 3 years of a 5 year integrated undergraduate and postgraduate
program of study (with the Master of Science (Nutrition/Dietetics and Exercise
Science)) designed to produce a combined Dietitian and Exercise Science
practitioner who has professional accreditation from both the Dietitians
Association of Australia (DAA) and the Australian Association for Exercise
and Sports Science (AAESS).
Students wishing to transfer into the Bachelor of Science (Exercise Science
and Nutrition) will normally apply at the beginning of each academic year.
Selection is based on criteria which include University results and UAI
scores.
