Bachelor of Science (Honours)
Overview
Open up pathways to further research, postgraduate study options and exciting career opportunities by undertaking an additional year of study to obtain your honours.
The Bachelor of Science (Honours) program provides an opportunity to pursue an independent research project in your area of interest as an additional year of study, essentially giving you a research apprenticeship.
During your honours year, you'll work under the guidance of a researcher on a specific project of interest to them. You'll learn about the research environment, how to perform critical experiments and analyse data, and how to communicate and present your results.
As a UQ Science Honours graduate, you'll have the skills that enable you to work without close supervision in a research environment in industry or government or to proceed to a research higher degree.

My experience as an honours student helped me understand what it takes to lead a research project. The subjects throughout my degree were a wonderful mix of theoretical and field-based learning, led by engaging lecturers and tutors who were always happy to have a chat.
My honours year allowed me to conduct research on major real-world issues that are currently affecting coral reef ecosystems on a global scale. This taught me how to think like a scientist, and create relevant research questions and studies on our most pressing issues.
At UQ I had the opportunity to work on a coral metagenomics research study which allowed me to gain additional fieldwork experience on the Great Barrier Reef whilst learning new laboratory and bioinformatics skills that are essential to the research I do now.
UQ has a fantastic physics department, the research is excellent, and the co-curricular and extra-curricular activities enhance your learning significantly. Take advantage of the many opportunities to try new, unusual, and exciting things – you’ll be doing yourself a great service.
Studying at UQ gave me a strong technical background and plenty of opportunities to be actively involved in cutting-edge research to ensure I was well equipped to rapidly acquire the skills and knowledge needed to become an expert within my field.
