Bachelors of Science Applied Science BP229• In addition to Applied Chemistry, Biological Sciences
and Physics which have named degree plan, you can major in Biotechnology, Environmental Sciences and Food Science.
• All seven major disciplines in this program follow this common plan:
• 7 core courses• 11 specialised courses to define a major• 4 science electives• 2 student electives

Macro invertebrates tell us how healthy the water is.
Students learn to ….
Saline soils are very poor for agriculture and easily wash away.
Learning to identify marine creatures ….
In rock pools in the Marine Biology course
Or underwater on coral reefs off Lizard Is. in a fieldwork elective.

What makes RMIT science programs special• Entry pathways from Diploma and Associate degree run in VET
• Choice with specialization – a major / minor combination, double degree or integrated Hons
• Strong hands on component – plenty of practical experience, labs, pilot plant, and field trips
• All students do an independent project in their final year
• All student will complete either a work placement or a project based team working component
• Science / University elective components
• International OS experience, semester exchange, OS work experience, International Student volunteers (ISV)
All students do a science research project in their final year…
Working in teams on real projects These activities rehearse skills needed in industry
