5 Discover your study options At Monash you actively engage in choosing your study options to suit your career goals and areas of interest, knowing that all choices lead to expertise. Find your talent and passion, and turn them into your career with Monash s overarching undergraduate-course options. Comprehensive courses You can choose a Monash comprehensive course in arts, business, commerce, information technology or science. If you re fairly sure what your major study area will be, you can select from a wide range of subjects to suit your personal and career interests. If you re still deciding where you d like your studies to take you, or you d like to keep your options open, our comprehensive courses allow you to try a range of subjects in year one, then narrow your focus in year two while still having the opportunity to try new things, before finally choosing your major area of study. As you progress through your course, you will focus on one or two majors and minors. At the end of your course you will have an in-depth understanding of your core areas of study with expertise in at least one specialised field. Specialist courses With a specialist course at Monash you can begin training in your area of interest from day one. If you have a specific career goal firmly in your sights, this is the option for you. Some specialist courses prepare you to practise in a regulated profession such as law, architecture, and engineering. Others for example our undergraduate courses in fine art, biomedical science and pharmaceutical science also develop expertise relevant to a particular professional field. These courses are designed to ensure you have the right combination of skills needed for your professional field. Double degree courses In a double degree course you study towards two degrees concurrently for example arts and law, or science and engineering graduating with two separate qualifications. Monash double degree courses give you the benefit of studying towards two degrees at the same time enabling you to keep your options open, develop expertise in different but complementary areas, or simply to pursue two areas of interest in-depth. A double undergraduate degree at Monash will take two years less than if you completed the two degrees consecutively. A double degree makes you highly employable, distinguishing you in today s crowded job market through your combination of skills. The advantage of studying at Monash is that it offers one of the most extensive ranges of double degrees in Australia, with more than 140 double degrees combinations offered across all broad fields. You will graduate with a focused, relevant qualification leading to great future career opportunities. At Monash, you have a number of choices, but all lead to expertise.
