Streams
A stream is a core program of study and an additional set of units of study for the stream.
The available streams in the Bachelor of Science are:
In addition to the requirements specified in the degree resolutions, achievement of the Dalyell stream requires completion of 12 credit points of Dalyell units as set out in Table D (Dayell Stream).
The available streams in the Bachelor of Science and Bachelor of Advanced Studies are:
- Advanced
- Animal and Veterinary Bioscience
- Health
- Medical Science
- Taronga Wildlife Conservation
- Dalyell.
In addition to the requirements specified in the degree resolutions, achievement of the Dalyell stream requires completion of 12 credit points of Dalyell units as set out in Table D (Dalyell Stream).
Programs
A program is a combination of units of study that develops expertise across several disciplines or a professional or specialist field. It includes at least one recognised major in a field of study. Programs are larger volumes of study – in a specified area – than a 48 credit point major.
