Bachelor of Science/Bachelor of Data Science - Data Science (1601) (097100E)

In this double degree, students can embrace their passion for science and learn how to analyse, model, interpret and visualise data to develop forward-thinking solutions for contemporary practical challenges.

Students will gain a foundation knowledge across all areas of science, giving them the flexibility to decide what they would like to focus on next, and gain specialised skills and practical knowledge for a professional career in the biological, clinical, chemical, physical or mathematical sciences.

With a strong focus on hands-on learning, students will have access to state-of-the-art testing labs and facilities and work on real and authentic projects. Throughout, students will be taught by some of Australia's leading researchers, who are tackling the big issues of today.

Students will pair what they learn in the lab with the practicality of their data science degree, which includes all the legal and ethical issues associated with the ways society handles and protects its information.
