Overview
- The Bachelor of Science and Bachelor of Advanced Studies (Health) at the University of Sydney offers students a comprehensive grounding in scientific and health disciplines combined with an advanced study component. Students engage in major-study units in “Health” (covering topics such as human biology, eHealth, psychology, and public health contexts) and then tailor their degree with a second major or minor from a wide science or health portfolio.
- The “Advanced Studies” component allows students to undertake higher-level coursework, capstone projects, industry/community projects, or research-oriented units, providing enhanced depth and preparation for leadership roles in health or further postgraduate study.
- Graduates are positioned for career paths beyond direct clinical practice — for example, health policy, health management, health systems design, advocacy, global health, health data/information systems, and community health roles.
- The programme emphasises interdisciplinary skills, critical thinking about health determinants (political, sociocultural, economic, environmental), and offers flexibility in major selection to align with student interests and emerging health sector needs.
