The Bachelor of Science is a versatile degree that provides students with the optimal balance between a defined sequence of study and flexible course options. This innovative program has been redesigned to develop graduates with the key practical skills and interdisciplinary knowledge required to address today's global challenges. Students will study an extensive range of courses underpinned by cutting edge research and develop high levels of personal initiative, independent thinking and communication skills. Graduates will be qualified for employment opportunities in a wide array of science and non-science industries. Biophysics Biophysics is a scientific discipline at the crossroads of biology, physics, and chemistry. Biophysicists study structure and function of biological molecules, cells and organisms using the principles and methods of physics. Biophysicists do not only study biological systems, they also develop and build new instruments and tools for research and biomedical applications. Following on from the publication of the human genome at the turn of the century, a growing number of biophysicists are needed to decipher the structures of all the gene products and the complex interactions between them. Biophysicists are also at the forefront of the research in bio-inspired functional materials, biomimetics and nanotechnology.
