Course code: 0530 + Clayton + Administered by the Faculty of Science
The combined course for the degrees of Bachelor of Arts and Bachelor of Science is normally four years of full-time study or eight years of part-time study. An honours degree in either arts or science will require one further year of full-time study. Except with the permission of both faculties, students will be required to complete the combined course within 10 years, including intermissions.
Students must study at least four level-one sequences, at least two from the Faculty of Science and at least two from the Faculty of Arts; only four sequences will be taken in the first year of study and no more than 36 points of level-one units may be taken from either faculty.
Students will then go on to complete at least one major sequence and one
minor sequence in arts and at least one major sequence and one minor sequence
in science. These four sequences must be in different areas of study.
Students are required to pass a total of 192 points to complete the
requirements for the BA/BSc, with 96 points of units from each faculty.
Students must satisfy the core requirement for the Bachelor of Science as part
of their science studies by completing SCI2010 and at least one of SCI1020,
MTH1030 and STA1010.
The Faculty of Arts requires arts studies to be chosen from the arts
disciplines in the unit listings. The Faculty of Science requires science
studies to be chosen from the science units listed in the section `Science
areas of study and sequences offered' in this handbook. Students in the BA/BSc
course may not take units from faculties other than the Faculties of Arts and
Science.
Students may be eligible to graduate with either a BA or a BSc after three
years, depending on the units studied. Students who wish to graduate with a
Bachelor of Science, or undertake honours in science, prior to the completion
of the full BA/BSc course must have completed at least 144 points of studies
including all of the science requirements for the course.
