Undergraduate and Honours Programs
The Bachelor of Science with Bachelor of Arts program was launched in 2002 and has proven to be a popular choice with students. The double degree offers a unique, innovative, interdisciplinary program of study that bridges the Sciences and Humanities, as well as providing undergraduate qualifications in Museum studies. This degree will provide you with a broad education that will allow you to apply your knowledge and skills to a wide range of endeavours beyond the university and will open doors into interesting and rewarding occupations.
The double degree is a 4-year program of study leading to a BSc with BA offered in specialty areas for which Macquarie has a high reputation: Ancient History, Australian History, Archaeology, Palaeontology, Biology, Geology, Geography and Indigenous Studies. No other university within Australia offers such an undergraduate program. This interdisciplinary degree is designed in order that students will qualify with coherencies (majors) in at least three segments of study, and as well will provide students with a comprehensive background for the field of museum studies into the 21st century.
Following successful completion of the museum program, you can continue your fascination with museums by undertaking an Honours year.
