Program Overview

Unravel the mysteries of the natural and physical world with a Bachelor of Science at UniSA. Scientists work by observation, and measurement, making predictions and informed decisions through the systematic study of the nature and behaviour of the physical universe.

Fostering a spirit of inquiry, you will have the opportunity to follow your natural curiosity and tailor your degree to your interest areas, from traditional pathways like Applied Physics, Biology for Science, Mathematics, and Chemistry for Science, to increasingly critical areas such as Ecosystem Sciences, Computer Science and Geoscience and Biogeochemistry.

You will spend a significant amount of time in laboratory and field settings, with the degree designed with practical skills in mind to ensure you graduate prepared to adapt your expertise to a diverse range of industries, such as defence, the environment, meteorology and energy or food.
