UWA’s immersive curriculum and global network

prepares you for the ever-changing world outside your

degree. You’ll gain industry connections even before you

graduate, and kick-start a successful career.

Undergraduate degree types

Seeking your first university degree? Our undergraduate

courses allow you to start your journey to a fulfilling career.

Comprehensive bachelor’s degrees

Design your own course with our comprehensive

bachelor’s degrees.

Choose one or two majors from a wide range, then

add electives and/or a minor to suit your interests

and career goals. Explore your interests with the flexibility

to change your mind - choose your major(s) when you

enrol and if you’d like to change during your degree

you can.

Specialised bachelor’s degrees

Prepare for your dream career with a specialised

bachelor‘s degree.

You’ll take an extended major with a carefully designed

study plan to give you in-depth knowledge of your

chosen career or profession. You can complement this

with a minor or electives from almost any study area.

Combined bachelor’s degrees

Pursue your passions and maximise your career options

with our combined bachelor’s degrees.

You’ll complete two bachelor’s degrees – one

comprehensive (where you’ll choose a major from a wide

range of options) and one specialised (where you’ll take a

defined study plan).

Honours

Improve your career prospects or take a path to further

study with an honours course.

Honours is a one-year program you can apply for

after completing your bachelor’s degree with strong

academic performance in your major. An honours year

includes advanced coursework and a major research

or creative project.

We also offer some integrated honours courses. These

four-year courses also include advanced coursework and

a major research or creative project in your final year.

22 The University of Western Australia | uwa.edu.au/study International Course Guide 2024 | uwa.edu.au/study

What makes up a

bachelor’s degree?

Majors

You’ll take at least one major – a sequence of units that

will give you in-depth knowledge in your chosen degree.

We offer a wide range of majors (which typically make up

at least one-third of your course) and extended majors

(up to two-thirds of your course) within our bachelor’s

degrees. Depending on the course, you may be able to

take more than one major.

Minors

You also have the option to choose a minor (or two,

depending on your course structure). Minors are shorter

sequences of four units that allow you to gain knowledge

in an area that may complement your major(s), suit your

career goals or simply be of personal interest.

Other units

The rest of your study plan will be filled by different kinds

of units (depending on your chosen course and major[s]).

• Foundation units: Required units (in certain courses)

that give you broad grounding and key skills in your

chosen degree area, irrespective of your choice

of major(s).

• Bridging units: If you don’t have the required ATAR

subject or equivalent for your chosen major, you can

usually take these additional units in your first year as

part of the major.

• Elective units: Elective units provide you with the

opportunity to explore a range of interests and new

disciplines. If you have space for elective units you

can choose (almost!) anything you like to expand your

knowledge in a new field, provided that you meet the

unit rules.

Example study plan - Comprehensive bachelor's degree with 1 major

and 1 minor

Postgraduate pathways

Our packaged undergraduate and postgraduate degrees

provide the knowledge and networks for career success.

If you don’t achieve the entry requirements (or

equivalent) to secure your place on a postgraduate

pathway, you can still apply for your chosen postgraduate

degree after your bachelor’s degree.

Assured pathways

Secure a guaranteed place in one of our high-demand

postgraduate courses before you start your bachelor’s

degree – and perhaps even complete your postgraduate

degree sooner. Offers are based on your high school

performance (or equivalent) and satisfactory results in

your bachelor’s degree.

Combined bachelor’s and master’s

degrees

Complete two degrees in as little as four years.

An express path to your postgraduate qualification,

it begins with advanced postgraduate-level studies in

the third year of your bachelor’s degree.

“The course at UWA offers a great mix of everything to

become a successful data scientist, with the flexibility to

specialise through electives. The highlight of the course for

me was my Data Science Research Project on characterising

urban attractor hubs using Transperth ticketing logs. My

supervisor was an amazing mentor. Outside of the classroom,

my time as a volunteer at Robogals and as a postgrad student

representative at the PMC education committee are on top

of my list.”
