About the course
This university-wide Science minor is a 48 credit point study area that can be taken alongside an eligible QUT degree, subject to your course rules and study plan options. It lets you build coherent science knowledge through introductory units and more advanced options across disciplines. Offered units may vary by timetable and prerequisites, and completion is recorded on your transcript and as a study area when selected and completed correctly. The programme develops scientific knowledge and analytical skills aligned with its qualification level and industry expectations.
Career outcome
A Science minor can broaden your degree with additional scientific literacy and discipline knowledge that supports work in technical, analytical and evidence-based roles. Depending on the unit set chosen (e.g., astrophysics, biotechnology or climate science), it may complement careers in research support, laboratory and field operations, data-informed decision-making, science communication, and roles in government or industry where scientific understanding is valuable. This outcome aligns with undergraduate study in Sciences.
