CSU's Bachelor of General Studies (Science) program offers a range of flexible, generalist undergraduate study areas with a wide range of opportunities and choices available to graduates.
CSU's Bachelor of General Studies (Science) provides students flexible study options with access to a diverse pool of subjects that teach a wide range of knowledge and skills. The aim of this approach is to increase the student's potential to meet a wider range of vocational needs in an increasingly broad variety of science environments. The course allows students flexibility in the construction of a program of study that they consider will best meet their future employment needs.
The Bachelor of General Studies (Science) draws upon the extensive portfolio of subjects already developed by CSU's Faculty of Science as well as the subject offerings of other CSU faculties and any tertiary study previously undertaken.
Almost anything is possible with this flexible degree, however there are some study pathways available if you have a particular area of interest. For information about creating a study stream in the Bachelor of General Studies (Science), see the examples here.
The University Certificate in General Studies (Science) and Associate Degree in General Studies (Science) are exit point degrees, should a student decide to withdraw from the Bachelor of General Studies (Science) program.
International students can study this course by distance education only.
For each 8 point subject at CSU, students should normally expect to spend between 140-160 hours engaged in the specified learning and assessment activities (such as attending lectures or residential schools, assigned readings, tutorial assistance, individual or group research/study, forum activity, workplace learning, assignments or examinations). The student workload for some subjects may vary from these norms as a result of approved course design.
Students will be assessed on the basis of completed assignments, examinations, workplace learning, or other methods as outlined in specific subject outlines.
Where applicable, students are responsible for travel and accommodation costs involved in workplace learning experiences, or attending residential schools (distance education students).
Expectations relating to academic, workplace learning, time and cost requirements for specific subjects are provided in the subject abstracts and in course materials.
