We have designed the Bachelor of Advanced Science (Honours) with budding scientists in mind. It's for students who want to pursue postgraduate research. By taking a conjoint with a Bachelor of Arts you can combine your scientific specialisation with a wide range of subjects in the humanities, social sciences, cultures and languages. This conjoint will enhance your scientific research and critical thinking skills. You could prepare for international research collaborations by studying a language, or explore mtauranga Mori and ways in which it can be incorporated into scientific research. You will complete an independent scientific research project in your final year under the guidance of a mentor. Our BA/BAdvSci(Hons) will give you a strong foundation to continue in postgraduate research. As artificial intelligence and robotics challenge traditional ways of working, your enduring critical thinking and communication skills will future-proof your career. You will be well prepared to pursue an international scientific career, or contribute directly to research here in New Zealand.
