DEGREES OFFERED
Students entering one of the four specialist degrees with a UAI of at
least 90 are eligible to enrol in the Advanced Program for these degrees.
For details refer to the Bachelor of Science
(Honours) - Advanced.
The specialist degrees are structured differently to the Bachelor of
Science. They are comprised of prescribed subjects with very few elective
subjects. In the four-year degree there is special coursework in the 4th
year which is not available in other degrees as well as an Honours research
project. Honours is awarded on completion of the 4th year on academic
performance assessed by calculating a weighted average mark for specified
300-level and 400-level subjects. For the three-year Bachelor of Marine
Science, a seperate Honours research year is available after completion
of the three years of coursework.
The Faculty of Science is also involved in the following degrees:
Double Degrees:
All students enrolled in Faculty of Science degrees should note that:
- they must satisfy the minimum mathematics requirement for all degrees
offered by the Faculty of Science as set out in the Course Rules;
- a Pass or Pass Conceded grade (not a Pass Restricted grade) is required
in a pre-requisite subject to progress to a higher level subject in
disciplines within the Faculty of Science unless that pre-requisite
is waived by a Head of the Academic Unit for a particular student in
special circumstances;
- a Pass Conceded grade in a 300-level subject forming part of a Science
major may not be counted towards the completion of the major. Students
may obtain a copy of the Science Students' Guide from the Faculty Office,

Please note that course and subject availability and requirements are
often changed after the publication of the Calendar. For up-to-date
information please refer to the on-line Course Structures
