The Bachelor of Science Advanced – Global Challenges (Honours) includes all the elements of a Bachelor of Science, but with more. If you love science, and you are curious, adventurous, creative and prepared to challenge the status quo, then this course is for you. The only one of its kind in Australia, this course will provide you with all the opportunities available to a Science honours graduate, plus many more. In addition to studying the scientific discipline of your choice – from the broad range available at Monash – you'll receive high-level training in leadership, persuasive communication, entrepreneurship, policy, ethics and corporate social responsibility. Add access to state-of-the-art facilities, world-class teaching, inspiring high-profile guest speakers, and two one domestic or international internship programs, with at least one international placement, and you'll graduate with the tools and know-how to transform your scientific expertise into a thriving business or social enterprise. The summit of your experience will be a year-long project where you will tackle a problem of real-world significance. Mentored by successful external leaders, you will work in small teams to develop innovations and solutions to approach an issue from scientific, policy, social and business perspectives. You'll be perfectly placed to pursue employment with the world's leading consultancies, businesses, government and other institutions. You will also be equipped with the skills to use science to address complex global challenges, and convert ideas, potential and ambition into tangible solutions Mathematics is the universal language used to describe, model, understand and even create aspects of the world around us. The complex and fascinating discipline of mathematics examines numerical, algebraic and analytical structures, and the development of quantitative methods essential for the practice and development of science, engineering, economics and many other fields. Studying at Monash will expose you to cutting-edge developments in mathematics. Our mathematicians are working on many exciting areas, such as mathematical modelling to predict behaviour, analysis using pure mathematics, and stochastic processes involving risk, randomness and change. In the broadest sense, mathematics helps us recognise patterns and understand the world. It encompasses a wide range of areas, from mathematical methods to statistics to pure mathematics, and its applications are multifaceted and far-reaching. Mathematics and statistics are the two cornerstones for decision-making across a broad range of contexts. Through this major you will develop high-level expertise in the important techniques and processes of mathematics, particularly in advanced calculus and linear algebra. You will acquire the critical thinking skills to analyse and solve problems and use and interpret the mathematics that arises across a range of contexts and applications. You will also be able to present mathematical arguments and communicate mathematical processes and results effectively to diverse audiences. These skills are highly sought after in a wide range of industries. Successful companies and organisations know their competitive edge depends on the analytical and quantitative skills of their workforce, and therefore seek employees with a sound mathematical training. As a graduate your career options are broad, and you might pursue one of the following rewarding occupations: mathematical modeller; data analyst; business analyst; data-mining analyst; environmental-resource modeller; quantitative analyst; statistician; or mathematics teacher, to name a few.
