What it isYou study science and law together in one integrated degree, rather than choosing one or the other. This combines courses in biology, chemistry, and physics with legal studies and criminology, giving you broad background in both fields. It suits people drawn to science who also want to understand law and regulation, or who are exploring whether a legal career in science-related areas appeals to them.You start your first year studying foundational science — chemistry, physics, and related subjects that prepare you for medicine or specialized science programs. Rather than declare a major immediately, you complete a broad first year, then choose your focus (like biochemistry, physics, or health sciences) once you understand the field better. This suits students who know they want science but aren't certain which direction yet, or who want flexibility before committing.A Science Non-Honours degree lets you study physical sciences — chemistry, geology, and related fields — without committing to a specialized honours stream. You complete a three-year program with broader course choices and fewer upper-level requirements than an honours degree, giving you flexibility to explore different areas before specializing or applying to professional programs. This suits students who want a solid science foundation, aren't sure which specialization to pursue, or plan to move into medicine, health sciences, or graduate study.

Ranges are what each university publishes, not guaranteed cutoffs, and limited-enrolment programs often admit above them. Confirm anything you are about to act on with the university; each column links to its source.
