About this programme
The Diploma of Science is ideal if you are curious about studying science and would like to learn more, but are unsure about committing to a degree, or if you already have a career in the sciences and want to upskill with another qualification and skills in another discipline. You will explore a variety of science concepts, theories and principles in different fields such as general science, biology, chemistry, environmental science, geographic information science, physics and mathematics until you find the one that resonates with you. As you progress through your Diploma of Science, you will develop your knowledge of logical and critical thinking, and problem-solving from a scientific and technological perspective. After completing your diploma, you have the option to move into our Bachelor of Science or Bachelor of Environmental Science courses. Whether you are in the science field or looking to move into science, or perhaps you are a teacher or engineer wanting to gain knowledge about a specific science discipline, this flexible diploma will help you find what you are looking for.
