About studying Science at CSU

Through its science courses, CSU shows its commitment to presenting the practical application of science to applied problems in industry, the environment and commerce. We produce graduates with real-world skills and expertise relevant to real-world problems, graduates who are prepared to contribute to research and scientific endeavours all around the globe.

Employers in government, industry and education want professionals who are trained to think, analyse and communicate. Science graduates are ideal employees, possessing a unique blend of generic and discipline-related skills that give them the capacity to tackle problems with initiative and resourcefulness, to plan and execute projects and to work alone or as part of a team.

Work in this challenging sector of the job market is immensely satisfying as it impacts on daily life, now and into the future. We are seeing a focus on scientific research, largely due to heightening environmental and societal pressures, meaning that the need for skilful and innovative graduates is greater than ever before. A Science degree can set you on the road to a stimulating and challenging career.

Possible pathways include analytical chemistry, earth science, spatial science, biology, biotechnology and bioinformatics, forensic chemistry, teaching and applied ecology.
