Bachelor of Genetics
Where there is mention of Science courses, majors, minors and specialisations this refers to courses, majors, minors and specialisations that are offered by the ANU College of Medicine, Biology and Environment and the ANU College of Physical and Mathematical Sciences (see approved lists).
This program requires the completion of 144 units, of which:
A maximum of 60 units can come from the completion of 1000 level courses
A minimum of 36 units must be completed in 3000 level Science courses
The 144 units must include:
A minimum of 96 units from the completion of Science courses (see approved course list), including:
- 54 units from the completion of the following compulsory courses:
