Course overviewThe degree aims to provide students with a grounding across the major disciplines of science as well as in-depth training in at least one specialised area. Students complete at least one major sequence and at least one minor sequence in two different specialised areas of study. In addition to the major sequences, students study core and interdisciplinary units. The major and minor sequences available at the different campus vary. The science areas of study available at the Clayton campus in first year are astronomy, atmospheric science, biology, chemistry, computer science, geoscience, geography, mathematics, physics, psychology and statistics. Second and third year areas of study are presented in four broad categories: Earth sciences; Life sciences; Mathematical and computational sciences; and Physical sciences. See the Undergraduate Handbook [http://www.monash.edu.au/pubs/handbooks/aos/sci-ug-study-clayton-intro.html} webpage for details of Science areas of study and sequences available at Clayton. The areas of study available at Gippsland campus or by off-campus learning are applied biochemistry, applied microbiology, applied chemistry, applied statistics (minor only), computing, human physiology (minor only), mathematical sciences, resource and environmental management, and psychology.See the Undergraduate Handbook [http://www.monash.edu.au/pubs/handbooks/aos/sci-ug-study-gipplsand-intro.html} webpage for details of Science areas of study and sequences available at Gippsland. The areas of study available at the Sunway campus are Biotechnolgoy, Medical bioscience, Tropical biology. See the Undergraduate Handbook [http://www.monash.edu.au/pubs/handbooks/aos/sci-ug-study-sunway-intro.html} webpage for details of Science areas of study and sequences available at the Malaysia campus.
