Enhance your hands-on experimental abilities, creative problem-solving, analytical thinking, and data interpretation skills to tackle global challenges through a science degree. Specialize in an area that fascinates you – whether it's Games Technology, Biomedical Science, Marine Biology, Forensic Biology & Toxicology, Animal Health, Conservation & Wildlife Biology, Chemistry, Physics & Nanotechnology, Genetics & Molecular Biology, or Sport & Health Science. Complement your classroom learning with international study trips, internships, or industry and community projects. Marine Biology students, for instance, engage in fieldwork along Western Australia's stunning coastline through camps and research expeditions.
Gain practical expertise by completing professional placements and working on real-world science projects. Games Technology students, for example, apply scientific principles to create games, applications, and AI systems. Broaden your career opportunities by pairing your science major with another scientific discipline or combining it with law, business, management, or communications through a double degree. Three advantages of studying Science at Murdoch: 1) Gain direct experience in your chosen scientific field, from animal science to health science and technology. 2) Learn in state-of-the-art labs and unique environments like our conservation wetlands and on-campus farm. 3) Learn from renowned researchers making significant contributions in their fields while building professional connections before graduation.
The Honours program offers an additional year to deepen your Molecular Biology expertise. Outstanding undergraduate Molecular Biology students may qualify for this advanced study opportunity. Under faculty guidance, you'll conduct an intensive research project on a topic of interest while refining your investigative skills through advanced research coursework.
