Sciences Study Plans
What will I study?
Use our science study plans to help understand which courses, electives and units you may need to choose in order to meet the requirements for your degree.
As these documents are a guide, use them in conjunction with the academic program rules. Study plans for some programs may not be available, so individualised advice will be provided by the faculty office instead.
It is your responsibility to ensure you are correctly enrolled. Enrolment into courses outside of the study plan and enrolment advice listed could impact your eligibility to graduate.
