You can expect to study alongside a small cohort of high-achieving fellow science enthusiasts in this new, embedded honours specialised course for four years.
You'll be immersed in real-world research from your first year in authentic research environments with leading QUT researchers and projects.
Specialising in Biological Sciences, you will study living things and how they evolved: animals, insects, plants, and microorganisms; everything that breathes, grows and feeds us.
Biologists are curious about all these things and want to know how they work, how to grow and protect them—how to get involved with life on this planet.
Biologists love a challenge. How will we feed a population of eight billion people in 2025? Can we use biological waste to solve our energy crisis?
How can we protect our plants and animals from exotic diseases? How do we conserve ecosystems and biodiversity?
