Bachelor of Science
Macquarie University - North Ryde
Overview
Electricity. Antibiotics. Mobile phones. Clean water. Cars. These are just a microcosm of things that have changed our lives for the better – things we wouldn’t have without science. The future is filled with innovations we can’t even begin to imagine – innovations that will be brought to life by curious and pioneering minds.
The Bachelor of Science is for those excited by discovery and who question the norm. You’ll learn from world-renowned researchers who are addressing the big issues facing our global society, such as the changing environment, future materials and fuels, and biotechnology. You’ll be able to study complementary disciplines or non-science units that feed your curiosity. And you’ll be part of a community that has led many significant initiatives in recent years, including early climate change research, photonics, evolutionary biology and groundbreaking research in earth’s crustal systems.
