Stage one

Students at the Gippsland campus must normally complete one of the three 48-point packages of level-one units that are listed below:

Applied biological and chemical sciences

• BIO1711 and BIO1722
• CHM1731* and CHM1742
• a 12-point level-one sequence in a science area of study, or either STA1010 or SCI1020 plus ENV1711
• two six-point elective units

Environmental science and resource management

• ENV1711 and ENV1722
• CHM1731* and CHM1742
• BIO1722 plus either STA1010 or SCI1020
