Bachelor of Science/Bachelor of Journalism

Combine the flexibility of a science degree with a professional journalism qualification, and become uniquely equipped for a rapidly evolving careers market. Students can mix and match course combinations from general science and non- science disciplines, and focus on specialisations with majors, minors or extended majors to deepen knowledge in the second and third years. UQ offers one of the broadest selections of science disciplines in Australia and over 2200 teaching and research spaces. Students can focus their program towards areas of interest or specific career goals. Students gain relevant, real-world experience through employability and work-integrated learning opportunities such as internships, industry placements, research projects and international study opportunities. In the journalism component, students will develop a deep understanding of journalism and its media and communication contexts, and the skills and reflection necessary to be a journalist. Students gain well developed skills in language, the analytical rigor of scientific training and a good understanding of science and the media.
