3 years full-time
Explore over 40 science majors and specialisations in a flexible 3-year undergraduate degree. Gain foundational knowledge in fundamental sciences before specialising in your chosen pathway, preparing you for careers in research, environmental science, medicine, and beyond.
To be eligible for admission into the Bachelor of Science, you must have completed a recognised qualification and meet the required entry score. International qualifications are assessed based on country, institution, and qualification equivalencies. English language proficiency requirements apply; you may need to provide evidence of English proficiency to study. Entry score requirements vary by intake year and are available through the University's application portal.
The Bachelor of Science curriculum is structured across three years of study. First-year students complete core units providing foundational knowledge in fundamental sciences, developing critical analysis and scientific thinking skills. In second and third years, students specialise by selecting from over 40 available science majors, programs and streams including biology, chemistry, physics, nanoscience, environmental science, mathematics, psychology, and more. Students complete a primary stream, program or major from the Science disciplinary pool, along with a minor or second major from either the Science pool or shared pools across the University. Additional units are completed from the Open Learning Environment and elective subjects as needed to reach the required 144 credit points for degree completion.
The University of Sydney offers world-class science education taught by dedicated scientific thinkers, including members of the Australian Academy of Science, Australian Research Council Fellows, and prestigious prize winners. Students study in multimillion-dollar facilities including the Sydney Nanoscience Hub and the Charles Perkins Centre, which focuses on diabetes, obesity and cardiovascular disease research. The University provides long-running year-in-industry programs in chemistry and physics, internship partnerships with leading food and research organisations, and a flexible degree structure that allows students to tailor their education to their interests and career goals.
A Bachelor of Science opens doors to diverse and rewarding careers across multiple sectors. Graduates pursue roles as agricultural scientists, astronomers, biosecurity researchers, ecologists, environmental policymakers, food chemists, hydrologists, marine scientists, mathematicians, medical scientists, nanoscientists, nutritionists, psychologists, plant geneticists, soil scientists, and veterinarians. The degree prepares you for positions in research institutions, government agencies, environmental organisations, healthcare, food science, and academia, with opportunities to contribute to solving global challenges in sustainability, health, and scientific innovation.
