Bachelor of Science - Multidisciplinary Science

The University of Notre Dame Australia

If you are attracted to the idea of being able to move between diverse careers, or if you have a clear, but somewhat unique, idea about your professional future, then this versatile Stream should be considered. This Stream offers a truly ‘liberal science’ experience, maximising your breadth of learning in interdisciplinary science. The flexibility of this Stream helps you tailor your program to meet your personal interests, if other Streams do not seem ideal for you, and/or caters for unconventional career trajectories where scientific skills offer an advantage.

Breadth of experience is provided through a balance of theory and practice from two or more scientific disciplines, and a focus on developing skills in critical thinking, innovation, analysis and communication are prioritised. Interdisciplinary perspectives also encourage holistic and creative approaches to problem-solving which are highly sort after by employers and applicable to many workplaces.

You can combine this Stream with courses from non-science areas such as Journalism, Politics and International Relations, Behavioural Science, Social Justice, Preventive Health, or Business Studies. These courses could form a six-course Minor or be used to further broaden knowledge, perspectives and experience.
