HSC subjects and science majors
How to connect your interests to study options at Sydney
,
Unsure of the difference between a major and a minor? Want to know how your HSC subjects connect to Science subjects? Use our guide to decide what to study at University.
You’ve decided that you want to continue studying a subject you enjoyed during your final years of high school, like Biology or Chemistry or Food Technology. But, you’ve realised that it’s not as simple as enrolling in a Bachelor of Biology, or Food Technology, because those exact degrees don’t exist
You can actually study these subjects and gain advanced knowledge by enrolling in a Bachelor of Science or a Bachelor of Liberal Arts and Science, broad degrees that offer you a variety of subject areas to specialise in (over 40 in fact).
The first thing you’ve got to know when you enrol in a Bachelor of Science or a Bachelor of Liberal Arts and Science, is that you’ll study a major and a minor.
