Explore the endless possibilities of science with this degree as you can choose to study everything from astronomy to neuroscience. So whether your interests are broad or unique, the Bachelor of Science allows you to follow or find your passion. You’ll have the flexibility to explore all of your interests, tailoring a program to take you in whichever direction of science interests you most. And when you study at Australia's most reputable science university, you will gain access to state-of-the-art laboratories while being mentored by leading scientists. You'll also benefit from studying in Canberra, a science city which gives you unparalleled access to parliament, CSIRO, government departments, Geoscience Australia and many other national and international science organisations. Career Options Graduates from ANU have been rated as Australia's most employable graduates and among the most sought after by employers worldwide. The latest Global Employability University Ranking, published by the Times Higher Education, rated ANU as Australia's top university for getting a job for the fourth year in a row. Learning Outcomes Upon successful completion of a Bachelor of Science, graduates will be able to: develop, apply, integrate and generate scientific knowledge in educational and professional contexts; use a range of skills and methods to identify, analyse and respond to problems and issues; convey and relate professional and disciplinary information and ideas to diverse audiences in effective and appropriate ways; work and learn in both independent and collaborative ways with others to encompass diverse abilities and perspectives; exercise personal, professional and social responsibility as a global citizen. Advanced Quantitative Biology and Bioinformatics Quantitative skills have become an essential ingredient for modern biology. The vast quantities of genomic data generated by sequencing technologies can only be handled and interpreted through computers using algorithms underpinned by sound mathematical and statistical models. Mathematics also finds application in directly modelling biological processes at all levels from the molecular to macroscopic. This specialisation is designed to equip students with an understanding of the mathematics behind the computer programs regularly used by biologists, and an ability to analyse biological data and construct mathematical models. The intersection of mathematics and biology is one of the fastest growing areas of science, with most large biology laboratories now employing bioinformaticians, creating career opportunities in both the public and private sector.
