澳大利亞國(guó)立大學(xué)

If you are looking for that little bit extra in your degree, the Bachelor of Science (Advanced) (Honours) provides the same breadth of opportunities as the Bachelor of Science, with the addition of Honours Pathway Options that are designed to extend your understanding and introduce you to concepts that are more advanced than standard course activities. The fourth honours year allows exploration of research possibilities in your area of interest. It prepares you for professional life or a higher degree by research through the development of an advanced knowledge of the research principles and methods and theoretical concepts of your discipline, and through the design and implementation of a research project that develops new understandings or provides solutions to complex problems.

Employment Opportunities

In a global economy driven by data, digital technologies and innovation, high quality scientists are in demand. A combination of knowledge, technical skills and research experience gained in the Bachelor of Science (Advanced) (Honours) will increase your employability, and equip you well for further postgraduate study. The Bachelor of Science (Advanced) (Honours) can lead straight to a PhD.
