The Bachelor of Science (Honours) course aims to provide students with a higher level of experience in independent analysis and research in their chosen field of expertise. This experience has vocational aims, but also provides a preparation for study by coursework and/or research for the higher degrees of Master of Science or Doctor of Philosophy. The honours program involves coursework through seminars and a major research project. Science graduates gain employment in biotechnology and genetic engineering, agricultural support and pharmaceutical science, banking and finance, environmental consulting, hospitals, medical institutes, mining, petroleum and engineering, research, and wine and food industries.
