Breadth for Bachelor of Environments Students
First Year
In first year, you may select any two 100-level subjects (25 points) outside the Bachelor of Environments as breadth.
You may select one of the new University breadth subjects, or subjects from other disciplines like maths, economics, history, political science, anthropology, geography, languages, chemistry, biology or commerce.
Second & Third Year
In second and third year, you will be required to undertake 50 points of breadth subjects with at least one subject at 300-level. When re-enrolling for second year, you will identify a likely major which will be classified into one of the following streams:
- Scientific (major in Landscape Management, Environmental Science, Civil Systems, Physical Systems or Geomatics).
- Design (major in Architecture, Landscape Architecture or Urban Design).
- Socio-cultural (major in Environmental Geographies, Politics and Cultures).
- Business/quantitative (major in Property or Construction).
Breadth within the Bachelor of Environments
Because of the interdisciplinary nature of the Bachelor of Environments, students can select their breadth subjects from other streams within the degree providing it contrasts with their chosen discipline. For example, a student taking a scientific major such as Civil Systems or Environmental Science will take breadth subjects that contrast with the scientific way of knowing. These subjects might be taken within the Design, Socio-cultural or Business/quantitative streams of the Bachelor of Environments program. Students may also choose any subject from the list of University-wide breadth subjects.
