What is the difference between the BSc and the BSc (Advanced)?
The Bachelor of Science (BSc) and the BSc (Advanced) are very similar in structure with the opportunity to study in the same subject areas in both degrees. Some subjects that are available as part of both degrees are offered at the “Advanced” level to qualifying students. These advanced units cover similar material to the regular units but in a more challenging way. Students in the BSc (Advanced) must take a certain number of subjects at the advanced level and maintain a certain average to stay in the advanced degree stream. Students in the BSc may opt to take subjects at the advanced level if they are looking for more challenging study but are not obliged to.
