Bachelor of Science Advanced in Global Challenges (Honours) - Earth Science

Program Overview

The Bachelor of Science Advanced - Global Challenges (Honours) includes formal training in leadership, persuasive communication, and hands-on practice in transforming an idea into a business or social enterprise. Fundamental to the program is an in-depth exploration of the big issues of our time.


Major: Earth Science
The study of Earth Science will develop your understanding of the earth's dynamic systems, including the atmosphere, biosphere, its surface and oceans. You will also learn about complex and fascinating earth processes – such as plate tectonics, volcanism and earthquakes – and how they shape our environment.

You'll gain an insight into how the earth has changed over deep geological time and which earth processes pose natural hazards to society today. Studies in this area are essential for understanding and assessing anthropogenic impacts such as climate change and pollution. You will also learn about the major resources – including mineral deposits, oil, gas and water – on which modern life depends.

Earth Science at Monash covers a broad range of topics, including geology, geophysics, and environmental Earth Science. You will learn about the main geological processes that have controlled the evolution of the earth and the timescales over which they operate, develop technical field- and lab-based skills for work in geoscience, and apply geoscientific data to analyse challenges and to develop effective solutions in professional contexts.
