Learning to think like a Scientist is a skill that will set you up to be analytical, capable, and above all, highly employable.
Science covers an ever-evolving range of sub-disciplines which involve observation, experimentation, and the testing and development of new ideas and products. UQ Science graduates now work in fields including chemistry, biochemistry, ecology, genetics, psychology and statistics.
Mathematics is the study of quantity, structure, space, and change. Mathematicians seek out patterns, formulate new conjectures, and establish truth by rigorous deduction from appropriately chosen axioms and definitions.
