An arts/science degree builds your knowledge and skills across creative and technical areas to expand your career prospects in fields such as environmental science, humanities, research, health and social sciences.
Your arts and science studies are divided equally across this four-year double degree, allowing you to explore topics from both disciplines that reflect your interests and goals.
Choose from arts subjects like anthropology, languages, archaeological and heritage studies or philosophy and combine these with studies in scientific areas such as botany, microbiology, data science, zoology and more.
You'll have access to purpose-built teaching and research facilities throughout your arts and science subjects and work alongside some of Australia's leading educators.
