At UNSW, you can choose between a number of Science degree programs.

Talented Student Program
Each year, the Dean of Science invites the top students in the Bachelor of Science and Bachelor of Science (Advanced Science) to join an elite group who are mentored throughout their study program.  Students typically have an ATAR (or equivalent) in the high nineties so you are mixing with some of the best and brightest students on campus.

Specialised degrees
   

Specialised degrees offer more structured study programs either directed towards professional accreditation by industry or associations, or towards employment in a relevant professional career. These are often 4 or 5 year programs including studies from a range of related disciplines as well as training in important professional skills. The programs may incorporate a research project that may lead to an honours degree.

3 - 5 years duration

Dual degrees
   

Students may choose to study dual degree programs – two degree programs undertaken in parallel, leading to the award of two degrees. Dual degrees enable students to combine a Science program with a program from another faculty (eg Law, Arts and Social Sciences, Business, Engineering), offering greater flexibility to explore individual interests, expand skill bases and broaden career prospects.

4 - 5.5 years duration

Diploma in Science, Engineering & Technology (DipSET)
   

This program provides a flexible pathway for students who have a range of gaps in their assumed knowledge and do not meet the standard entry requirements. It provides an opportunity for these students to broaden their scientific skills base, to strengthen their academic literacy, and to develop their critical and analytical thinking. Students who are highly motivated to study science and who come from a range of backgrounds will find this program attractive.
