COURSE DESCRIPTION
The Bachelor of Advanced Science is no ordinary science degree. Designed for high achievers, it equips students with expertise in one of three disciplines at the forefront of contemporary scientific endeavour. Whether they’re working towards careers in medicine, or they want to learn at the cutting edge of pharmaceutical or quantum sciences, students emerge ready to respond to the complex challenges that are shaping their future profession.
Taking a transdisciplinary approach, the Bachelor of Creative Intelligence and Innovation utilises multiple perspectives from diverse fields, integrating a range of industry experiences, real-world projects and self-initiated proposals, equipping graduates to address the wicked problems, complex challenges and untapped opportunities in today’s world.
The flexibility of this course allows students to either specialise in a specific professional area or develop skills and knowledge in a range of scientific disciplines. All majors aim to produce professional scientists with a thorough grounding in theory, and highly adaptable and practical scientific, experimental and computational skills relevant to the discipline chosen.
By focusing on the high-level conceptual thinking and problem-solving practices that lead to the development of innovative, creative and entrepreneurial outcomes, students of the combined degree also gain leading edge capabilities that are highly valued in the globalised world, including dealing with critical and creative thinking, invention, complexity, innovation, future scenario building and entrepreneurship, as well as the ability to work on their own, across and between other disciplines. These creative intelligence competencies enable graduates to navigate across a rapidly changing world.
